In "Borderline," Joseph Badal delivers his first mystery novel with the same punch and non-stop action found in his acclaimed thrillers.
Barbara Lassiter and Susan Martinez, two New Mexico homicide detectives, are assigned to investigate the murder of a wealthy Albuquerque socialite. They soon discover that the victim, a narcissistic borderline personality, played a lifetime game of destroying people's lives. As a result, the list of suspects in her murder is extensive.
The detectives find themselves enmeshed in a helix of possible perpetrators with opportunity, means, and motive-and soon question giving their best efforts to solve the case the more they learn about the victim's hideous past.
Their job gets tougher when the victim's psychiatrist is murdered and DVDs turn up that show the doctor had serial sexual relationships with a large number of his female patients, including the murder victim.
"Borderline" presents a fascinating cast of characters, including two heroic female detective-protagonists and a diabolical villain; a rollercoaster ride of suspense; and an ending that will surprise and shock the reader.Hak Cipta Terpelihara

I wasn't living until I met him. __________________ "YOU ARE MINE AND MINE ALONE!!!" He yells at me as his grips tightens around my wrist. I wince from the pain but he doesn't notice it. "He better keep his hands off you or there will be consequences, this dagger is the only thing that can kill him for good" He whispers in my ear and laughs cruelly. "What are you going to do?" I ask. My voice nearly cracks. "I'm going to kill him" He says laughing and takes up a dagger. "No, please, no" I whisper. The tears roll down my face. He throws me down to the floor, then walks out with the dagger. He slams the door shut, leaving me here all alone crying on the floor in pain. {A stunning cover made by @bitchmafia} {HIGHEST RANK #18 in vampire} {HIGHEST RANK #14 in kindness} {HIGHEST RANK #1 in secretary}

Secrets. Lies. Murder. Betrayal. Guilt. Justice. Part 2 oleh sadewolu

In this sequel of the Secrets. Lies. Murder. Betrayal. Guilt. Justice trilogy, the Ryder PD launches an official investigation into Eric Walker's homicide. This means questioning every single attendee at the Labor Day party, including protagonist Erika Slatten and two of her friends, Arthur and Kari-Ann. As the investigation kicks into gear, Ryder law enforcement is doing everything they can to interrogate students, friends and family members... Even if it means putting Jimmy Carter High School under daily surveillance to monitor suspicious activity or incriminating knowledge among students. The lead investigator is Gordon Marshall, a very close friend of the Walkers who knew Eric personally, and he is determined to get justice for the young man whose life has just been taken from him so soon. While Erika and her friends feel that their privacy is being violated due to the Ryder PD's constant surveillance of their school, they understand that it is important for them to come forward with anything pertinent to the case, or risk obstruction of justice. She forms an unexpected bond with Eric's mother, Sabrina Walker, and learns more about the past of the most "hated" guy at Jimmy Carter High than she ever realized. This gives her a change of heart by seeking justice with Sabrina for her only son that she's now lost for good. She suggests that the Walkers organize a scholarship event for the school to honor Eric's name and legacy so that he doesn't become a forgotten one. All this takes place during the investigation where a special friendship is put to the test, and suspicions are cast toward one particular person who may have been the last one present with Eric as they were taking him home from the party that night. In this story world of secrets, lies, and betrayal, relationships are being put to the test, and everyone is forced to come clean about their alibi and their relationship with Walker.
