Edge Of Innocence (MYSTERY)

is a chilling and atmospheric mystery that blurs the lines between guilt and innocence, trust and deception, as one woman fights to uncover the truth before it's too late.When 22-year-old Clara Mills is found at the scene of a brutal crime, clutching a blood-stained knife with no memory of how she got there, the small, insular town of Cedar Hollow is quick to label her guilty. The evidence is damning, but something about Clara's terror-filled eyes and fragmented recollections doesn't sit right with Detective Evelyn Cross, a seasoned investigator known for following her instincts even when they lead her down unconventional paths.As Evelyn digs deeper into the case, she discovers that the crime is connected to a string of disappearances stretching back decades, all of them swept under the rug by powerful people with too much to lose. Clara's story-disjointed and filled with gaps-hints at a dark past she's been running from, one filled with betrayal, manipulation, and buried secrets.With the town divided and the pressure mounting to close the case, Evelyn must navigate a labyrinth of lies, corruption, and deeply buried grudges. Clara, meanwhile, begins to piece together fragments of her memory, revealing shocking connections between herself, the victim, and a shadowy figure who seems to be pulling the strings from the shadows.As the clock ticks down, Evelyn and Clara form an unlikely alliance, determined to uncover the truth. But the closer they get to unmasking the real killer, the more dangerous their pursuit becomes. In a town where everyone has something to hide, and nothing is as it seems, innocence is a fragile thing-and the truth might come at the ultimate cost.
