Return to Sender Murderer 

“Compulsively readable, emotionally resonant, and shrewdly plotted, Return to Sender Murderer is Ivanka Fear at her very best.” — author Frank Spinelli 

“I can twist fact and fiction. No one needs to know it’s based on a true story."

The past was hard to erase. If only there was a magic brush that swept the bad into a dustpan and allowed the good to seep into the cracks of the floorboards.

The past has a way of stayin’ with you when everything else is gone.

Emails are sent. Everyone is warned. Not for the first time. Someone is threatening to go to the police. Someone else will do whatever is necessary to stop them.

A letter arrives. A husband rips open the envelope. His world is turned upside down. What has his wife done?

 

Looking for a fresh start in their marriage, Lake and Kealy Matthews find it will take more than a change of address to keep their past mistakes from following. First an ominous note is delivered, then someone is watching their house. 

 

An aspiring author, Lake discovers that a group of teenage girls from their neighborhood found a body in the bay 15 years ago. As he pieces together the truth about the drowning, Lake decides the story has the makings of a best-selling thriller. But when Lake learns he and Kealy have a connection to the girls, their own secrets risk being exposed as the skeletons in the young girls’ closet come tumbling out.

 

When it becomes clear there’s more to the drowning incident than anyone knows, Lake must decide if exposing the guilty is worth putting Kealy at risk. 

 

Life in suburbia is about to become more dangerous than any fiction Lake could ever create.
