When Shadows Fall
When Shadows Fall | J.T. Ellison
6 posts | 8 read | 7 to read
Dear Dr. Owens, If you are reading this letter, I am dead and I would be most grateful if you could solve my murder Forensic pathologist Dr. Samantha Owens thought life was finally returning to normal after she suffered a terrible personal loss. Settling into her new job at Georgetown University, the illusion is shattered when she receives a disturbing letter from a dead man imploring her to solve his murder. There's only one catch. Timothy Savage's death was so obviously the suicide of a demented individual that the case has been closed. When Sam learns Savage left a will requesting she autopsy his body, she feels compelled to look into the case. Sam's own postmortem discovers clear signs that Savage was indeed murdered. And she finds DNA from a kidnapped child whose remains were recovered years earlier. The investigation takes Sam into the shadows of a twenty-year-old mystery that must be solved to determine what really happened to Timothy Savage. Nothing about the case makes sense but it is clear someone is unwilling to let anyone, especially Samantha Owens, discover the truth.

Book 3 of Samantha Owens series. Sam is teaching forensics and receives a letter from a dead man asking her to solve his murder. All things point to suicide but after postmortem Sam agrees that he was murdered. This is a fast moving thriller that keeps you on the edge of your seat with twists and turns to the very end. Can‘t wait to read the next one! If you like suspenseful thrillers then you need to read this one!

RohitSawant Sounds interesting! 6y
EadieB @rohit-sawant You should start with her Taylor Jackson series. This series is a spin-off from that one. Ellison is an excellent writer. 6y
RohitSawant @EadieB Thanks for the rec! 6y

Day 2 #FeistyFeb #shadows The only book on my Goodreads stacks w/shadows in the title is When Shadows Fall, the 3rd book in the Dr. Samantha Owens, Medical Examiner series. Sam is the best friend of Lt. Taylor Jackson in the author's 1st series & left tragedy/heartache in Tennessee for D.C.-teaching at Georgetown & consulting for the FBI. Because friends don't let friends read series books out of order😆I'll tag the 1st books in both series below.

DebinHawaii First in Samantha Owens series: 7y
DebinHawaii First in Taylor Jackson series: 7y
