After serving her 17-year sentence, Melender has one objective: To uncover the truth about what happened to her cousin the night the toddler disappeared. When Brogan pursues her for an exclusive story, she reluctantly agrees if he’ll help her reexamine the original investigation into Jesse’s presumed kidnapping and murder.
While re-investigating the case, Brogan struggles to keep his objectivity as he begins to believe Melender is innocent of the crime—and starts to envision a possible future together. Then a hocking discovery throws their relationship—and investigation—into turmoil.
As Brogan and Melender come closer to solving what happened to Jesse, will their budding relationship survive the truth?

Excerpt from Justice Delayed
The tingle increased. “Is that spelled V-E-E-R?”
“Yes.” Mr. Patel greeted one of the teens, who set down a large slushy and a giant candy bar.
Brogan waited while the owner rang up the remaining purchases of the group. It could be a coincidence that Mr. Patel’s son had been working during the two robberies. Still, at the risk of offending the man, Brogan had to follow up. “Was Veer working last night?”
“He was. He usually works overnight shifts on weekend to let me spend time at home with my wife.”
Definitely something there, but Brogan let the subject of Veer Patel drop for now. “But you were here last night. Why was that?”
Mr. Patel shrugged. “I was waiting until jackpot numbers were called at midnight. People buy lottery tickets in cash.”
“Did you see the robber?”
“Yes, but he wore werewolf mask.”
“Like a Halloween mask?”
