Blood Ties Michael Lister

An unimaginable crime. An unstoppable detective. John Jordan returns from his honeymoon to discover that in the early morning hours of July 4th 2017, an unimaginable murder takes place in a rented Gulf-front mansion in a gated subdivision of Cape San Blas in Gulf County, Florida. There are no signs of forced entry and only six people were known to be in the house at the time-the victim, nine-year-old Mariah Evers, Mariah's dad, the Atlanta rapper Trace "Evidence" Evers, his girlfriend, Ashley, Ashley's ten-year-old son, Brett, the nanny, and Trace's manager. The case bears remarkable similarities to an unsolved murder that has always haunted John-the disturbing and disquieting death of JonBenét Ramsey, which earlier in the same year reached the heartbreaking milestone of its twentieth anniversary. Can John do what the Boulder police never could? Can he solve this perplexing mystery before it too becomes yet another tragic unsolved case? Can he find the justice JonBenét still hasn't received?
