Broken Alibi

Truth, memory and lies. How much should you lie for the man you love? Are we really the same people we were twenty years ago? And what makes a suicide definitely murder? Just three of the questions which confront barrister Sarah Newby, as she struggles to return to the courtroom drama. Shaken by her second divorce and the murder of her previous lover, Sarah wonders if all her relationships with men are doomed. Her admirer, Detective Terry Bateson, hopes not, but what if he, too, has a secret he’d prefer to keep hidden? While Terry investigates a tragic suicide, Sarah wonders if her former husband was ever the man she imagined. Trying to unravel this mystery, Sarah’s student daughter Emily faces new and terrible dangers. And if Sarah’s client is innocent of murder, why has he told such obvious lies?
