________________

He's been looking in the windows again. Messing with cameras. Leaving notes.

Supposed to be a refuge. But death got inside.

When Katie Straw's body is pulled from the waters of the local suicide spot, the police decide it's an open-and-shut case. A standard-issue female suicide.

But the residents of Widringham domestic violence shelter where Katie worked don't agree. They say it's murder.

Will you listen to them?

An addictive literary page-turner about a crime as shocking as it is commonplace,
KEEPER will leave you reeling long after the final page is turned.
