Some Choose Darkness (A Rory Moore/Lane Phillips Novel Book 1)

Forensic reconstructionist Rory Moore specializes in solving cold-case homicides by analyzing crime scene details that others overlook. While clearing out her late father's law office, she receives a call about a decades-old case that draws her into a complex investigation. In the summer of 1979, five Chicago women disappeared. The killer, known as The Thief, left no bodies or evidence until police received a package from a woman named Angela Mitchell, whose investigations seemed to identify the perpetrator. Angela then vanished. Forty years later, The Thief is set to be released on parole for Angela's murder. However, a cryptic file Rory discovers in her father's office suggests the case contains hidden layers. As Rory uncovers successive discoveries, she becomes deeply involved in uncovering what happened to Angela Mitchell. Her investigation leads her toward a full and disturbing truth.
