Summary: Truth + Consequences = Murder
Hannah Clarke, a wife and mom one day, is a widow without a child the next. Two years later, living as H.L. Mason in Fossil, Colorado, her safe new world explodes with a revelation so shocking and horrifying she can hardly grasp it. By chance, she meets Sheriff Noah Ward, and though she’s leery of cops after being accused of killing her family, she needs help. Noah, a former Navy SEAL, agrees to do what he can, but he soon discovers the case is far more insidious than parental abduction.

An award-winning watercolorist and a budding photographer, Ann enjoys needlework and gardening in her spare time.

The genealogy research from decade’s old documents in Italian, she says, has been a supreme but gratifying challenge.
