The Dead Stone: Book 2, Tally Whyte

Book 2: Tally Whyte Homicide Counselor

by Vicki Stiefel

Genres: Mystery; Hard-Boiled

Synopsis

To recharge both her physical and emotional self, homicide counselor Tally takes a sabbatical from Boston's MGAP in this action-packed mystery thriller. Accompanied by her three-legged K-9 companion, Penny, she rents a cottage in Winsworth, Maine, where she plans to do some private counseling, fly fish, and reacquaint herself with a town and friends she hasn't seen in more than two decades.

Things soon go horribly awry when a disturbing tale she hears from a stranger turns out to be grimly real: a young woman has been ritualistically murdered on the Dead Stone, a woman Tally knew as a child. Simultaneously, when Tally reveals who she is to a beloved teacher, the woman's vitriolic response horrifies her until she meets a cop who stirs long-dormant romantic embers within her.

“The Dead Stone is a powerful psychological mystery that will leave you wanting more from this talented author.” —Affaire de Coeur

“High on suspense, this wonderfully gripping tale is just about impossible to put down. [A] wild and entertaining ride throughout.” —New Mystery Reader
