16 years ago, Rebecca Bradley’s mother was murdered. Rebecca was only eight years old. The killer has never been caught. Growing up, Rebecca vowed that one day she would track him down and make him pay.
Now Rebecca is a young police woman in Ontario. She wants to become a homicide detective. Her first investigation is the cold case of a woman who vanished for 16 days and then was found dead in her own home. The brutal crime shocks the remote Canadian town of Conroy.
The puzzling case has uncanny similarities to the murder of Rebecca’s mother. Both victims were found strangled in their own kitchens.
Can Rebecca keep her emotions together as she closes in on a killer with connections to her family and tragic past? And will she finally get justice for her mother?
Her Dark Path is a book I really enjoyed reading. I found Rebecca Bradley to be a fascinating character. She's a broken figure, who prefers to keep people an arms length away from her, but finds she is drawn to some of the people in small town of Conroy. Soon, she discovers she is becoming friends with various local people and comes to trust them as she searches for clues in the murder case she's working on, something which is hard for her to do.
All in all, it's a story well told.
