When a woman suddenly stops showing up for work, a welfare check at her home raises more questions than answers. Detective Sergeant Laura arrives to find a guarded husband whose account is filled with inconsistencies. As the missing person investigation deepens, Laura must trust her instincts, keep a potential suspect talking, and carefully piece together what really happened in a case that shocked a small, tight-knit community. Laura Price spent her law enforcement career asking questions, following clues, and discovering that on a small island, things are rarely as simple as they first appear. Her 23-year career began as a reserve deputy and took her through corrections, patrol, investigations, and supervision before retiring from the Island County Sheriff’s Office in 2022. Laura spent much of her investigative career working child abuse and sex crimes, but in a small agency, detectives rarely have the luxury of staying in one lane. When a homicide or other major case came along, everyone rolled up their sleeves and went to work. Along the way, she learned to always look in the corners for the clues. These days, Laura has traded the radio and badge for a somewhat quieter life—although she still has a natural curiosity, a tendency to ask a lot of questions, and an appreciation for a good story. https://quince.com/small Get the best deals on Ember at https://ember.com/small and let them know Small Town Dicks sent you.
