Kendall Road by Janet Heijens

Suspicious Evidence

Life in prison. That's what Leland Booker got for killing his wife and daughters 40 years ago. But did he really?

When Adam Bennett, an eager and doggedly determined third-year law student, reopens the case, his impassioned conviction that the real killer remains free shakes up a world of questionable characters. It also wins over the reluctant help of lawyer Cate Stokes, former babysitter for Leland's girls.

As the pair dig for legal loopholes armed with scattered leads, the case drags empathic and pensive Cate into a past littered with secrets and a present full of confessions, suppressed evidence and dead witnesses.

Full of riveting twists and turns, Kendall Road tackles the racially biased realities of a justice system gone wrong while keeping readers guessing till the very end in this fourth masterpiece by Janet Heijens.

Janet Heijens is the author of the Wrongful Conviction Mystery series. Kirkus Reviews describes her heroine Cate Stokes as equally smart, resourceful and empathetic - and more than worthy of an encore appearance.Her fans say she Captures the Florida Gulf Coast perfectly that is filled with Mystery, murder, human trafficking, bad guys, nice guys, twists and turns... a live-aboard boat (and) a good dog.

In her second book, Caspersen Beach, Heijens once again brings together protagonist Cate Stokes and Detective Lalo Sanchez to challenge a flawed justice system. Early readers say, Heijens' cast of characters and well-paced story take the reader on a wild ride on its way to a satisfying resolution with hope.

A founding member of the Sarasota Literary Guild, Heijens is an active member of the Florida Gulf Coast Sisters in Crime. She lives with her husband, Pieter in Sarasota, Florida. You can contact her through her website http: //www.janetheijens.com or find her on Facebook.
