If Amelia Hawthorne had her mind set on something, she was laser focused and didn’t rest until she achieved it.

That was why she was the perfect person to find where Chloe and her corrupt family had hidden Russell Lewis’s body.

“Why would he take a…” The rest of my question caught in my throat.

This spur of the moment trip reminded me of the last–minute party that
