Thirty years have passed…

…since that fateful night.

Will the ultimate cold case resurrect the dead?

Alex and her partner chase down a man accused of killing the Boston police chief. But it’s the interrogation that really turns Alex’s stomach. The man isn’t just a drunk, he’s rude and full of himself. Alex is done with him—until he shares something that upends her world.

Is it possible that she could still be alive?

Taking a leave from the FBI, Alex embarks on a journey to find the truth. The evidence is faint, but undeniable. And then her life is threatened.

What secret are they hiding?

Clinging to a whisper of hope, Alex must out-think and out-duel everyone in her path to right a thirty-year wrong.

Will Alex’s quest to find the truth destroy her life all over again?

You’ll love this sixth Alex Troutt thriller, because the truth will set Alex free—or she’ll die trying.

About the Author

Amazon #1 Bestselling Author, #2 bestselling author on Barnes and Noble, and a Readers' Favorite Gold Medal winner.

Many readers ask John from where he gets his ideas. Well, he's a veteran of the corporate rat-race, a former journalist, and he's always been an astute observer of human and social behavior. On top of that, he's really good at embellishing.

Amazon #1 Bestselling Author and a Readers' Favorite Gold Medal winner.

A veteran of the corporate rat-race, John W. Mefford never realized he was mentally documenting every experience of his professional journey—not until he started his first novel during a so-called "corporate timeout."

A voracious reader of mystery-thrillers since before he could shave, John enjoys weaving a twisty tale that keeps readers riveted until the last page. ​He's also learned he's pretty good at embellishing. Just don't tell his fourth-grade teacher.

    This was an intense, complex, and intriguing story with many unexpected twists and turns. Alex's life gets completely turned upside down in a matter of days, which leads her and her team on an investigation that no one saw coming. It's not a story that you'll want to miss.
    I would definitely recommend this book, series, and outstanding author.

    I loved the action in the book. It kept me reading every spare minute I had. There were revelations that happened rather easily however, I never saw the end coming and I like that in a thriller. This is the first book I've read by this author, so not reading the preceding books in the series was not an issue. I'll be looking at his other works.

    Remarkable book. Although in the middle of a series, it stands on its own.

    The plot is awesome. From a freeze frame 33 years earlier in Virginia to a funeral 1800 miles away in Texas to the arrest of a wanted murderer I Boston, the story unfolds beautifully. The characters along the line are quite believable. The pressure and evidence build up to a very credible crescendo and strong ending. The short epilogue puts things into real time perspective and whets the appetite for future [and past] volumes of the series.

    I have been down this road too many times with a suspense writer plotting a story on totally inept characters. The storyline plodded to a finale that was, to say the least, preposterous and left me wondering if the author has seen too many Fast and Furious movies. I believe the story had potential, but it fell way short in my opinion.

    In book 6 of Alex Troutt, it gives us more information of how Alex grew up and let's us get a closer look at her. Alex's father has passed away and Alex thought that would put an end to her "painful years" of growing up. She then gets a note that her father left her, and it has opened up another wound. Her mother, who really didn't act like she loved Alex and was so into religion that she really didn't have time for her young daughter, was gone when Alex was very young. Alex was told it was a car accident and that her mother died. When Alex and her other fellow FBI agents are capturing a man wanted for killing his wife and her boyfriend....another fellow law officer, this man confesses to the car accident on Alex's mother! This gets Alex thinking and she looks into finding her death certificate, but there isn't one. She goes back to where she grew up and the hospital told her that her mother left with someone. Alex keeps getting small "flashbacks" of when she was growing up, and now she is determined to find out if her mother is alive after all this time. Alex is in for a few more surprises along the way. What might you ask? Read the book to find out. I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.

    This entire series the premise has been that’s Alex’s mother is dead, but now it is her dad is dead and perhaps her mom is alive. The book follows Alex’s journey to find out what actually happened 30 years ago and it takes some crazy back wood cult twists along the way. Alex and Brad are officially a couple, but Alex is still working through some details. The kids are doing well and their new family dynamic is working well. Nick was present with his sassy self and I love their friendship and work dynamic.

    While searching for moms truth, Alex falls into a bigger story and problem. Low and behold we see Archie and he is still up to his perverse ways and yet still caring as well. The ending has a lot of violence but ties the story lines together well. The outcome of the case was not ideal and left me with a few questions, but this is one of my favorite books thus far in the series!

    Can you imagine confronting the person who killed your parent in a hit-and-run? The same person who murdered the police chief? Alex Troutt learns more about herself and her family. I can't believe this is the last book for the series, but what a great way to end it. This is just another marvelous book by an outstanding author. John Mefford has done it again, writing a story that thrills you and makes you question and satisfies you down to your toes. A really good book that is well-written and enjoyable. I'm going to miss Alex, but I'm looking forward to what John Mefford does next.

    Didn't win any points with me for what feels like a thriller obligatory cult book, but neither did it lose any. I've read others in this series and this was as good as the others, which means a decent thriller. Nothing amazing but today I didn't want amazing.

    The last, and arguably the best, of this excellent series.
    Having followed the ups and downs of her life since she first awoke from a coma without any memoriy (in book one, At Bay), I will miss Alex, her FBI colleagues and family. Each book is a stand alone and this one is exceptionally good in giving a great introduction which effortlessly informs the reader of her past and current personal problems as well as launching into the latest crime to be solved - all in a couple of chapters. And, at last, it looks as if Alex will find peace from the crime which has haunted her for years.
    John Mefford has written another thrilling book, filled with fully developed personalities caught up in a terrible drama of murder and misapprehensions. As I said earlier, I will miss Alex. Highly recommended.
