2000s: Some legacies are darker than others…
A Killer’s Daughter
What you need to know before your trail
Who better to catch a murderer than a woman raised by one?
Keeping her head down and refusing to let anyone get close is Agent Nadine Finch’s atonement for never realising her mother Arleen was a serial killer. But when the body of a young woman is found drifting in the warm Sarasota Bay waters, right where Nadine grew up, the past she’s worked so hard to keep hidden comes calling.
Rushing to the scene, Nadine is the first to notice the circle carved around the girl’s ring finger. It’s the exact same marking Arleen left on all her victims. Suddenly, Nadine is a teenager again, watching her mother come home to their trailer in the middle of the night, covered in blood.
Nadine has no choice but to face her demons and visit her mother in prison. When her mother whispers a name Nadine hasn’t heard for years, the case takes a terrifyingly personal turn…..
With her dark family history out in the open, it’s not long before suspicion falls on Nadine herself.

Travel Guide
Booktrail it down to Sarasota, Florida
One of the things to see from the locations in this novel is the glorious Sarasota Bay and the park. So, bodies are brought ashore here in the novel but don’t let that stop you! It’s a wonderful place to be.
One very unusual place to visit is the city courthouse. It also features heavily in the novel and plays a major role but it’s its setting that should really pit your interest:
“She passed through the lobby of one of Sarasota’s most beautiful buildings, designed in Mediterranean Revival style. Colourful mosaic tile brightened the central tower, courtyard and exterior. Most days Nadine lingered to appreciate the statues, fountains and reflecting pools in the inner garden.”
