Sticks & Stones (A Rachael Flynn Mystery Book 2)

Critically acclaimed author Susan Meissner's Rachael Flynn mystery series started with the popular Widows and Orphans. In this second serving of intrigue, Sticks & Stones, attorney Rachael Flynn receives an unsigned, heart-stopping letter:

"They're going to find a body at the Prairie Bluff construction site. He deserved what he got, but it wasn't supposed to happen. It was an accident."

It’s not long before the remains of teenager Randall “Buck” Buckett – a bully who’d terrorized the most vulnerable kids in his neighborhood – are uncovered, twenty-five years after the 15-year-old had presumably run away. Homicide detective Will Pendleton now has a cold case to solve, but with every new, unsigned letter she receives, Rachael becomes more convinced the letter-writer is a former bullied victim crying out not just for mercy but long overdue justice.
