Shirley Wells

A Darker Side by Shirley Wells is the second book in her mystery series that features Forensic psychologist Jill Kennedy and DCI Max Trentham. This was a dark mystery indeed, with the murder of a mother and her teenage son, and the disappearance of two of the dead boy’s classmates. Jill Kennedy and Max Trentham work together on the case and also on healing their personal relationship. They work together well, combining their intelligence, knowledge and instinct to sift through the clues and the suspects. This one time couple also seem to be finding their way back to each other, but after Max broke her heart, it’s going to take some time before Jill fully trusts him again.
