The Summer Suspect

One dead body in the marsh.One detective who doubts her.One chance to prove her innocence. Amanda Hart, anchor at NJ11 News, is on the brink of achieving everything she's worked for. Until one early July morning that changes everything. Led off course by her unruly dog, Amanda stumbles upon the body of a woman, lying face down in the marsh. But the woman is not a stranger. She's her colleague and biggest rival. Now Amanda is at the center of a murder investigation- and at the top of the suspect list. To clear her name, she'll have to stake her freedom on a man she swore she'd never trust again. But at NJ11, ambition runs deep. Beneath the polished broadcasts lies a web of secrets and envy...and Amanda must uncover the truth before time runs out.

A note from the author: I hope you enjoy Amanda Hart's page-turning journey through the Jersey Shore. Although the town of Manito Beach is fictitious, it bears a close resemblance to a popularJersey Shore town you may recognize.
