Ties That Bind — P.J. Howell

A missing brother, mysterious notes and thefts at a funeral home…that combination alone is enough to keep private investigator and bookstore owner, Jorja Matthews, more than busy. But when the case of a missing child and a woman found murdered are added to the mix, Jorja is soon up to her neck in secrets, lies and what others will do to get what they want. Jorja does what she does best and is able to expose those secrets and reveal the lies, but what she least expects is what happens when the past comes back to confront her, and at a much more personal cost. There are many ties which may bind us to family, friends, and…even our enemies. Jorja is about to discover just what that might mean.
