"Cure for the winter blahs"
This has been a long, cold winter and I think we all
deserve something that will heat up the late days of
winter. BODY OF EVIDENCE by Stella Cameron is just what
the doctor has ordered. Emma LaChance is out jogging one day when she comes across
unexpectedly Finn Duhon, her former high school crush, who
looks even better then he did in high school and a dead
body, the person is someone Emma knows. Despite her attraction to Finn, Emma knows she cannot act
on it. She is married to the mayor of Pointe Judah, tired
of his violent rages, she joined a support group to get the
strength she needs to leave him. But will she even have a
shot at a future with Finn or anyone else, when a killer
may be after her? BODY OF EVIDENCE by Stella Cameron is just what you need to
cure those winter time blues. Finn and Emma sizzle at their
first meeting as they try to find out who is behind the
killings. Ms Cameron once again shows why she is so good at what she
does. I love the rich blend of characters, and hope to read
more of the town of Pointe Judah, Louisiana. Barb Hicks

SummaryEmma Lachance is taken by surprise when she runs into her
friend and high-school crush, Finn Duhon, on a
construction site in Pointe Judah, Louisiana. But the last
thing she expects to find is the corpse of her friend, a
local journalist whose relentlessly scathing articles have
enraged every lawmaker and opportunist in town, including
the mayor—Emma's husband.
When more bodies are found, Emma and Finn wonder if the
link is Secrets, an eclectic support group for women in
which all the murder victims were members. A group that
has helped Emma find the strength to divorce her abusive,
unfaithful husband.
Could an innocent women's club drive a furious husband or
boyfriend to murder, or are the killings only made to look
as if that's the connection? Emma and Finn intend to find
out—before Emma becomes the next body of evidence....
