The Promise

Más información sobre el libro

Josh Miller's younger sister is murdered, an event that turns his neatly ordered world upside down. The year is 1991, army Captain Mandy Frye returns from Operation Desert Storm to a hero's welcome. Among the honors won is a year's scholarship to finish her graduate degree studies at Collier University in Vermont. Early in May, near the time of graduation, her severely battered body is discovered by police chief Sam Larsen. A popular, serious student, Captain Frye had no apparent enemies. Who committed the heinous act, and why? The Promise is both a novel of suspense and romance, and an investigation of the psychological effects experienced by the sibling of a murder victim. When it is learned that his sister was murdered by her sociopathic husband, Josh is driven to the brink of despair by his insatiable need for retribution. How far will he go in the name of justice? Although a fiction, the events in The Promise are torn from life, they have happened before; probably doomed to happen again.
