A Nobel Prize. A vanished scientist. A conspiracy written in blood and bone.
Forensic scientist Ava O’Malley and her cold case team uncover a mystery that stretches from the labs of Colorado to the darkest halls of organized crime. When Nobel Prize–winning physicist Dr. Angela Montoya disappears on the very day of her triumph, whispers swirl: stolen funding, sold secrets, a colleague consumed by envy.
Two decades later, Montoya’s remains are unearthed in a meadow littered with graves—some of the buried remains are missing entirely. The evidence points to Dr. Joanne Murkowsky, a ruthless scientist who gambled away millions, borrowed from the Mob, and may have used pulverized human bones to feed her roses.
But as Ava pushes deeper, the investigation spirals into a chilling world of mob hits, assassinations, and vanished soldiers whose families were told they’d died in Vietnam. Every discovery raises the stakes, and every witness carries a piece of the truth—or a scar from Murkowsky’s wrath.
Smart, propulsive, and unforgettable, All Blues delivers a thriller where forensic science collides with organized crime, buried secrets, and the haunting question of how far the powerful will go to silence the truth.
Perfect for fans of Patricia Cornwell, Michael Connelly, Tess Gerritsen, and Michael Crichton.
