Should we dig for the truth when Pandora's Box is a coffin of buried secrets?

Obit writer and editorial assistant Kris feels like the newsroom slave—that is, until she stumbles across an unsolved murder while compiling items for the 25 Years Ago Today column. Determined to launch her reporting career, Kris investigates the cold case of an artistic young barmaid who was obsessed with Greek mythology . . . an endeavor that unearths unhappy secrets in Kris's own past.

Not only does Kris face resistance from her family and her managing editor, she also clashes with the victim's suspicious nephew, Eric—until neither can deny the chemistry flaring between them.

Kris soon learns that yesterday's headline can pose today's danger. The Pandora's Box of secrets she opens in her attempts to learn the truth about the decades-old murder threaten to shatter her present and cost Kris her love, her career, and very possibly, her life.

If you enjoy murder mystery novels with a dash of romance and a determined female sleuth, then be sure to pick up this suspenseful GalleyCat Mystery & Thriller Bestseller that reached #30 on the Amazon Kindle Paid List.

Thousands of readers know who killed Diana Ferguson . . . do you?

Good Crime Novel

Recensito in Italia il 22 maggio 2016

I found this book to be a very enjoyable read with an excellent storyline and a well-developed plot. The characters are portrayed in a realistic manner and the ambience of the story fits in very well.
Only thing that I would consider to be a fault is that at times it's a bit too much of a "chick-lit" for me, but I am a male reader of thrillers and should have foreseen this based on the author's other works.
All-in-all a nice way to spend a couple of days absorbed in literature.

Diana Ferguson's Murderer Had Gotten Away With His Crime For so Long...But Not Anymore!

Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 10 maggio 2016

Acquisto verificato

Kristine Langley is obsessed with murder. This obsession stems from a tragic and traumatic event that occurred when she was twelve-years-old. Kris has always blamed herself for her twelve-year-old cousin's disappearance and brutal murder.

For the past two decades, she has kept a guilty secret to herself: she was actually the last person to see Nicole alive; and a childish argument was the reason why Kris had left her cousin to walk home alone. She has allowed the guilt of her actions that day pervade every aspect of her life. Her family may never realize the full extent of Kris' guilt, but she is determined to find some way to make amends for her mistake.

Kris has since become an editorial assistant and obituary writer for a Massachusetts newspaper. She enjoys her job - for the most part - and the schedule works very well for her. While compiling items from the microfilm to run in the "Twenty-Five Years Ago Today" town history column, Kris stumbles across an unsolved murder. She grows increasingly fascinated with the case of a young cocktail waitress who was bludgeoned to death and dumped in the woods.

Determined to solve the case and thus atone for Nicole's death, Kris immerses herself in the decades-old mystery of what happened to twenty-one-year-old Diana Ferguson. As Kris investigates the case further, Diana becomes more to her than just a murdered cocktail waitress; she was also an extraordinarily talented artist who expressed herself through haunting paintings based on Greek mythology. The more that she learns about Diana, Kris begins to feel a deep connection to her.

Yet there is also a certain amount of backlash to her sudden interest in such a cold case. Not only does Kris face resistance from her own family as well as her managing editor, she also clashes with Diana's hostile and highly suspicious nephew, Eric Soares - who is beyond certain that Kris only seeks to exploit his family for the sake of getting a story. However, as time passes, she and Eric can no longer deny the chemistry flaring between them.

Kris soon learns that old news never leaves the morgue and that yesterday's headline can easily turn into today's obituary notice. Because discovering what actually happened to Diana Ferguson on that long-ago night could be dangerous. Finding out the truth about what happened that night twenty-five years ago may just shatter Kris' present; costing her everything that she has come to cherish: her love, her career, and ultimately, her life.

I have had this book on my TBR pile for quite some time. I actually don't know why I have waited so long to read it. This is the second book that I have had the pleasure of reading by Ms. Juba, and must say that I absolutely loved the story and characters. I really found myself connecting with Kris and many of the other characters. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who enjoys reading intriguing character-driven mysteries with fast-paced plots. I give this book an A+!

Twenty Five Years Ago Today
by Stacy Juba

Kris Langley a journo at a local paper comes across a tragic cold case while looking through the old micro film records of news events twenty and five years ago. Kris reads, "Missing bar maid murdered", the victim Diana Ferguson was only 21 years old when she was killed. That was twenty five years ago. so the killer 25 years ago would be 46 years now, if the killer was also 21 years old way back then.

Kris becomes obsessed and quickly gets caught up in a complex web of mystery, red herrings, dead ends, office politics and clueless cops. All this is set inside a newspaper office so it's interesting right from the kick off. Kris has an almost impossible task, but she is determined to bring the killer to justice, she even goes as far as risking her future as a journalist.

No witnesses, no forensic evidence from the killer, unbelievable I know and police can't trace 69 last caller calls, all hard to believe but that's the police for you. Accidentally the killer seems to have committed the perfect murder. Avid readers of murder mysteries books know there is no such thing as the perfect murder.

The cop is Lieutenant Gerald Frank, his best line has nothing to do with the case, his story about a man who killed another man over a turkey leg was surreal. Franks words of wisdom and his insights into crime statistics are an early clues so get ready here is an example; Murder victims more often than not are killed by some they know .. Erm ...there are a hand full of people in the victims life, so why the hell didn't Gerald solve the case in the first week? Well if Lietentnant Frank is say 40 now he would have been only 15 years old at the time of the murder, so I will let him off. There are so many red herring that Kris could set up a fish stall at the local market if journalism doesn't pan out.

I jest you not, Stacy bless her...packs hundreds of moral themes and dilemmas into her books. Then there is the ancient mythology, one clue about the ending is fury. what is the worst crime ? A crime that deserves fury? The killer has committed such a crime. Stacy is on twitter @stacyjuba and she asked me to comment on the ending in a tweet.. it won't spoil it. But In their youth's the killer and victim were too young to handle betrayal. I liked the mythology inserts they add to the moral thread that Stacy weaves through, then snaps in all of her brilliant books, jealousy, adultery, lying, cheating all have consequences in a Juba book. I guess that's why I like them. Ok It's entertainment but I loved it. I look forward to the next book. I have read three of Stacy's books to date. This review was of the kindle edition. It's highly recommended.
