Ten Times Guilty
Brenda Hill
Bravery or rage? Tossing on the sweat-soaked cot at three in the morning, Tracy felt nothing but anger. She kept seeing Karr, leaning against the cottonwood tree in the park, arms lazily folded as he watched her. The scene repeated over and over like a warped video. He?d even flipped a cocky little salute as she shot to her feet in terror, mocking her, so sure of himself while she grabbed Ritchie and ran. Bastard, she thought now. She grew so outraged she no longer felt afraid. It was time to stop running. Even with all the precautions of the shelter, he still found her. She and Ritchie would never be safe. There was only one thing to do: she?d get a gun from Holly and meet him in the park. This time, the odds would be in her favor.

Sometime in the night a woman screamed. The next morning Pat Botham, Linda Miracle, and Linda’s two toddler sons were simply gone. It was the perfect crime until the railroad lowered the water level in the Gunnison River and exposed the bodies.

But in a small, tightly knit community where cops protect each other, there was no one to tell without putting her own life in danger. So she waited, watched, listened, and learned while another man was sent to the gas chamber. Then one day she made a giant mistake — she told the wrong person. Order: click picture below
