DEATH WISH
A Charley Spencer Novel
If the name Charley Spencer sounds familiar to you, you probably read a book or two in my Lieutenant Lucinda Pierce series. I introduced Charley in the first book, THE TROPHY EXCHANGE. At that time, Charley was just 8 years old. She came home from a birthday party to find her 3-year-old sister Ruby sucking her thumb on the basement floor, snuggled up to the battered body of their once vibrant mother. You can read the first chapter of The Trophy Exchange that introduces Charley.
Lucinda, too, had lost her own mother to an act of violence giving the woman and the bright, young girl an instant bond. As Lucinda tracked down the killer responsible, the two grew closer. When the serial killer came back for Charley, Lucinda saved the girl’s life, connecting them unconditionally.
Throughout the seven books of the series, Charley was ever present and now, as an adult, has followed in Lucinda’s footsteps. In DEATH WISH, she is an investigator at the Sheriff’s Department and has three dead bodies on her hands—a well-loved and respected elderly couple and their adult son, Hank.
Just about everyone who knew Hank wished he was dead, making it difficult for Charley to determine who pulled the trigger.
