Ripple Effect - Paperback

Some mysteries refuse to stay buried.

When the remains of an unidentified teenage girl are discovered in a Wisconsin forest, Detective Mike Franklin becomes consumed by the case. He calls her Cardinal Doe, after the silver charm bracelet found with her bones. But with no leads and his own demons dragging him down, the case goes cold-along with any hope of uncovering her name.

Fifteen years later, a new detective and cutting-edge DNA technology offer a fresh chance at the truth. As the investigation gains traction, Cardinal Doe begins to remember fragments of her life-and her death. And with each revelation comes a deeper mystery, one that ties her fate to Mike's in ways neither of them could have imagined.

As past and present collide, the truth is finally within reach. But will solving the mystery bring peace-or unleash consequences neither the living nor the dead are prepared for?

RIPPLE EFFECT is a gripping paranormal mystery that explores the unseen connections between the living and the dead, the weight of unfinished business, and the ripple effects of choices made long ago.
