The Ties That Bind - Jarvis, Angela

. .

Résumé :
Life in small southern towns is not always as pleasant as it seems. In this third book of the Florida Sheriff Deputies Murder Mystery Series, Tony Giovanni returns from The Wages of Sin to partner with Dagan Murphy of The Secrets We Keep. The old college roommates are working together on some leads that seem to have ties to their most recent cases. Donald Lockhart, the preacher from The Wages of Sin, has some family connections in the panhandle of Florida and they seem to tie into a case that Dagan just finished working on that involved his own family, not to mention some older cold cases that have gone unsolved for years. The Oakville's Children's Asylum once again seems to rear its ugly head to bring misery years after it was closed down for mistreatment of the patients housed there. Now being remodeled to become a fancy resort, all construction gets put on hold for yet another set of remains that have been found by the construction crew. Dagan and Tony delve deeper into the old records and the families connected to it, and soon will learn that blood is not always thicker than water. Sometimes that blood is so tainted, that some families will abandon those who they think will ruin their names and reputations. What is the evidence that binds all three cases together, and how will it affect those who have suffered the most?...

Biographie:
After health issues caused Angela Jarvis to quit his job as a Physical Therapy Technician, she decided to devote more time to writing, which she has loved since her early teens. Angela lives in a very small town on the southern edge of Lake Okeechobee with hery husband, daughter, and several fur babies. She has a grown son who is a sheriff deputy in the Florida Panhandle. He is a good source of information about law enforcement. I find that ideas abound in a small town, says Angela. Watching and listening is where all my best ideas come from.
