19 Year old Kimberly McClain never expected to file a missing persons report for her older sister. Nor did she expect that when her sister was found, she'd be lying dead in a clearing in the woods. It just so happens that Kimberly's sister was the first victim in a string of seemingly unsolvable murders. When Kimberly decides that she doesn't want any more families going through what she is, she does the only thing she can think of - she breaks notorious convict Quinn Deupre out of jail.
Quinn Deupre is the younger brother of detective Wyatt Deupre, ironic isn't it? Quinn was sent to jail for being part of a major drug deal. He claimed to be in the wrong place at the wrong time, but was sent to jail anyways. Who knows? Perhaps he actually is innocent? However, when Kimberly McClain breaks him out of jail with two conditions, he isn't complaining.
Will Kimberly find out who the killer is with the help of Quinn? Or will the case labeled 'Where She Lies' remain unsolved?

A man who knew far more than he ever could've shared. Klocke had managed to forget this warp in reality, for the most part. Surely he'd only imagined all that? Ghosts? They don't exist. Except they do. It used to be his only officially unsolved case. Though he knew who the killer had been. While he's successfully solved every case placed on his desk since, his luck with partners hasn't improved. Save for Jennifer Haiden, who survived not only being the captive of a psychopathic killer, but has so far managed to survive being his partner. When Klocke finds an invitation to a ten-year highschool reunion on his desk (one with a personal letter to him written on the back), he's forced to revisit that case from all those years ago. He's forced to remember why he can't let anyone get too close. Because he might be more than jinxed. He might be cursed. { { o } } COMPLETELY EDITEDComplete
