Detroit newspaper reporter Julia Gooden returns in a twisting, superbly assured new mystery, where a brutal murder and a fathers sudden return may provide the answers shes spent decades searching for . . . or lead deep into a fatal trap. The past never really leaves us. Crime reporter Julia Gooden sees proof of this every day in her stories. A dark childhood, a negligent parent, early abandonmentany one of them can seal a persons fate as either a villain or victim. Julia, who experienced all three, seems to have beaten the odds, finding happiness raising her two sons and a blossoming relationship with detective Raymond Navarro. But now, after three decades of absence, Julias conman father has resurfaced to throw her life into turmoil again. Julia was only seven when Duke Gooden abruptly left. Barely a month later, her nine-year-old brother, Ben, disappeared. Ben was her hero and protector, and though the case is cold, Julia has never given up hope of finding him. Dukes return offers vital cluesbut it also makes her a target of those who intend to see Duke punished for his many sins. When Julia investigates the death of a city councilmans young nephew, she finds links to a string of other murders . . . and to a web of greed and kidnapping that stretches back decades. At long last, Julia may be able to discover what happened to Ben all those years ago, but only if shes willing to risk everything in her present . . .

Excellent read! This was my first book by this author and I received an ARC copy through GoodReads. I found it was easy to follow along with the story, despite it being part of an established series. The characters were well described and there were so many plot twists it kept me on the edge of my seat!

Julia remains haunted by the unsolved disappearance of her beloved older brother 30 years ago & her father's abandonment of their family. Could he have had something to do with her brother's abduction?⭐⭐⭐⭐ Full review: http://www.jhsiess.com/2018/03/26/book-review-worth-killing-for/
