The Courthouse, (Paperback)

Ida Hall's murdered body was removed from a well on her family's property. Her husband confessed, was executed, and left three daughters behind. But the evidence never matched the confession, and the wrong person died for the crime. <p>Thirty-five years later, Iris Nichols is arrested for the murder of a fellow police officer. Though the evidence points to her, Iris refuses to cooperate with her defense attorney-even at the cost of her life-so Reese Carlton is hired to investigate. The purpose? To find out what Iris is hiding and who she is protecting. Instead, he uncovers eight other suspects and an ironic link: the murdered officer was investigating the decades-old Ida Hall case. </p><p>As Reese digs deeper, he finds buried motives, long-kept secrets, and a community convinced that Ida Hall's ghost still haunts the courthouse where Iris is being prosecuted. </p><p>With the case rushed to trial and Iris determined to hide the truth, Reese must uncover the real killer before history repeats itself and another innocent person dies for a crime she didn't commit.</p>
