He was walking alone

From USA Today Bestselling Author, P.D. Workman!

He met with tragedy

Richard Harding was walking alone when he was struck by a vehicle and died.

A tragic accident that was no one’s fault.

But if that was so, then why was his girlfriend so sure that it was intentional homicide?

Zachary Goldman is on the case. With Christmas approaching, he is as determined to distract himself from his own troubles as he is to ferret out the truth of Harding’s death.

The pieces of the puzzle start to fall into place and Zachary finds that there are more parallels between Harding’s life and his own than he would have guessed.

If he doesn’t identify the sinister force behind Harding’s death in time, he could suffer the same fate.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ As Zachary delves into the background of the victim in his case, he finds that they have more in common than he could have imagined. As always Ms. Workman creates characters that are so believable and human; none of that 2-dimensional stuff for her. The reader easily feels Kenzie’s frustration as she tries to convince Zachary that he has people who care about him and that he is worth being cared for.

Zachary Goldman, Private Investigator, is flawed with a capital F. Shattered by the tragedies of his own life, he will somehow still manage to pick himself up and dig just a little bit deeper than anyone else to find the vital clues.

Maybe being broken makes it easier for others who have faced tragedy to trust him. Walk with Zachary as he solves cases that will stretch his abilities to the limit.

Even with his own life in shambles, Zachary Goldman is still the one you want on the case.

Sample text:

Ashley took a bite of her salad and chewed it slowly. “The driver got out of the truck and went to have a look,” she said. “That tells me that he knew exactly what he had done. He got out to make sure Richard was really dead.”

“Or he got out to look for the animal he had hit, but not seeing one, decided to go on his way.”

“I know Richard. He would never be careless like that, walking with his back to traffic. He would have walked on the other side of the road so he was facing oncoming traffic. He would have gotten off of the road if there was a truck coming. He was very careful to avoid traffic accidents. He would never have let something like that happen.”

Zachary scratched down a couple of notes and closed his eyes, thinking about it. “Were you there that night? Did the two of you live together?”

“I have my own place, but I stayed over with him a lot. It just depended on what our schedules were like. That night… I went home.”

“Because you wanted to? He wanted you to? Whose idea was it?”

“I don’t know… I don’t think either one of us said specifically. It was just one of those things… mutual. I had things to do, he had things to do. So I went home.”

“And you realized he was missing when? The next morning.”

“Yes.” Without prompting, she went on to give him the details. “I called him every morning. We always chatted for a few minutes over coffee. Just touched base, talked about how our days were going to be. Couples stuff. It didn’t matter whether we were together or apart, we always had that talk.”
