Dead Hands by Lorie Brink
Yasmin Rose Pestel, the successful businesswoman behind Pestel’s Edible Petals, and her loyal canine companion, Combo, return home to a chilling scene.
Her estranged boyfriend lies shirtless and shoeless in a cleared lavender paddock. His vacant stare hinting at danger and secrets.
While Yasmin’s empire is crumbling around her, Combo’s selfless instinct puts his life in danger.
A cryptic telephone message tugs at the threads of a life Yasmin’s never known and suggests a conspiracy far larger than she can imagine.
Incontestable last wishes emerge as a seductive adversary despite the lingering rumour of a boogey-man, daring to prove that some legends—and some people—are not so easily laid to rest.
In a world where appearances mask deadly motives, Yasmin’s resolve is tested as she confronts chilling revelations, desperate operatives, and a web of deceit that spans years. With each revelation, the stakes rise: can she outsmart the masterminds behind the plot, keep her faithful companion safe, and solve the mystery before the truth becomes irretrievably deadly?
