About the book:
First Chance is a suspenseful thriller that readers won't be able to put down--perfect for fans of Sue Grafton and Michael Connelly.
Chance Kirby isn't new to detective work, but starting over in Hopeful, Texas, is a big step. Determined to leave behind her father and stepmother's shadow and carve out a future of her own, she opens a small PI agency, expecting missing heirlooms and marital disputes. But when the cold case of a murdered teenage girl is dropped on her doorstep, Chance finds herself in the middle of an investigation with no leads.
With her adopted sister Tia, her loyal dog Sissy, and the town's newly arrived police chief, Isabella Lopez, at her side, Chance soon begins to suspect this M**der may be only one piece of a much bigger, and more disturbing, pattern.
To stop a predator who, it seems, has managed to evade authorities for decades, Chance must stay one step ahead … or risk becoming the next target.
