Shadows

by EdnaBuchanan (Author)

Synopsis

The Shadows is a historic 1920s house built during Prohibition by a notorious rumrunner who vanished at sea, and inherited by his son, a local athlete and war hero who lived down his father's wild reputation. He served a successful term as Miami mayor and raised his four children at the Shadows - until a shotgun ambush on a hot summer night forty-four years earlier. His murder was never solved. Since then, only secrets and whispers have inhabited the house. Now, a resourceful young preservationist contacts the Miami Police Department's Cold Case Squad to help block a developer's plan to bulldoze the Shadows. Lieutenant K.C. Riley and her detectives visit the scene and discover a secret limestone cellar holding a heartbreaking new mystery to unravel. What becomes obvious is that a killer is out there, and the old cold case is hotter than ever.
