About Deceit:
Some evil shouts from rooftops; some scuttles in the dark. The worst evil tips its face toward light with shining innocence.
Baxter Jackson shone with the worst of them.
Skip tracer Joanne Weeks knows Baxter Jackson killed his second wife, Linda—Joanne’s best friend—six years ago. But Jackson remains a church elder and respected member of the town.
As Joanne drives home on a rainy winter night, a hooded figure darts in front of her car. Concealing his identity under a bloody mask, the man gives Joanne a stunning message: “You want to get Baxter Jackson? Find Michelle.” The 16-year-old had lived with the Jacksons when Linda disappeared.
Using her skip tracing skills, Joanne sets out to locate Michelle, now 22. But Joanne soon realizes there’s more at stake than justice for Baxter Jackson: her own life.
Alternating the current story with Michelle’s life in the Baxter household years earlier, Deceit explores the psychology of a stable family gone awry and deception hidden in the brightest of places.
