A Theresa Maclean Mystery
by Lisa Black
Forensic scientist Theresa MacLean is puzzled by the questionable death of a female construction worker at a Cleveland building site. A witness to the death a young girl nicknamed Ghost may be able to help. Ghost says the woman was pushed by someone she can only identify as the Shadow Man. Soon Theresa finds herself in a race against time to protect Ghost from an unknown killer before he is able to find the little girl and silence her for good.
"The bond that MacLean forms with Ghost lends human interest and few will guess the killer's identity before the final desperate confrontation." - Publishers Weekly
"An intense plot, knuckle-biting suspense, a likeable heroine, and a shock ending make for a thoroughly satisfying read." - Booklist
"Starred Review. Black handles multiple plots like a pro, building a story with almost as many layers as the new Cleveland jail." - Kirkus Reviews
