Sarah Shankman is also Alice Storey. This is the 1st in a series set in Atlanta in the late 1980s. Samantha Adams returns home after many years of living in San Francisco. She is a newspaper reporter who mainly covers murders. She left years ago to run away from Beau who broke her heart. She comes back after her current boyfriend died in car accident caused by a drunk driver. Add to that that Sam doesnt drink because she is an alcoholic who has been sober for over 10 years, long before Sean, her boyfriend is killed. She comes back to her Uncle George, who raised her, and who is a lawyer, George is going blind. He contracted river blindness in the amazon in Brazil. Yep that is what they said.

Sam is an investigative reporter, and she stirs up some trouble and some secrets. She will live to star in book two, so dont fret too much.

I enjoyed the book and the characters and the mystery.

IBSN # brought up wrong title and author: First Kill All the Lawyers by Alice Storey. An interesting look at the good-old-boy system in the south. Good read.
