Nowhere to hide

Marissa Gray was a happy twenty-one year old, engaged to handsome Eric Montgomery, who was the brother of her best friend, Gretchen. When Gretchen died under unusual circumstances, Marissa, an eyewitness to her death, claimed it had been murder at the hands of another friend, Dillon Archer. Unfortunately, another eye witness gave an account that contradicted Marisa's own, and Gretchen's death was labeled an accident. Eric not take Gretchen's death well, and broke off his engagement with Marissa, who then moved to Chicago to start her life anew. Now, four and a half years later, Marissa returns to her home town of Aurora Falls, a successful journalist, and gets a job working for the local gazette. While on her way to cover a local story, a hooded figure wearing a mask and wig forces her off the road during a snowstorm and almost causes her death. This incident brings her once again into contact with Eric Montgomery, who is now the acting Chief of Police. When she recounts what happens to her, no one quite believes her, until a series of horrific deaths occur, involving people with whom Marissa and Gretchen had once been friends. Someone in Aurora Falls most definitely wants to see Marissa dead, as well, but who could it be? The reader will enjoy trying to solve the mystery and will be surprised by the labyrinthine turn of events at the end. Though the ending seems a little far-fetched, this is a suspense filled mystery that will certainly keep the reader turning the pages.
