Innocence Road
ByPublisher Description
Detective Leanne Everhart swore she’d never go back to her hometown near Marfa, Texas—but she returns when her brother needs her, only to find a town in need too, still torn apart by a decades-old crime.
Leanne Everhart knows women have something to fear in her artsy hometown, especially so if they’re not rich, white locals. Returning to town after her father’s death, she sees the ugliest sides of an area that draws people for its severe, untamed natural landscape.
While her department faces mounting backlash over a recent wrongful conviction in the long-ago murder case of a popular local teenager—which is now unsolved—Leanne is called to a fresh crime scene at the edge of the desert. A nameless woman was found murdered, with no clues as to her identity. As Leanne digs into the crime scene evidence, she grows convinced this latest murder case is linked with the local teenager’s murder. And to multiple cold cases, all unnamed female victims, that have all been shelved by her department without leads.
Now, with conflicted loyalties and without allies, Leanne must hunt down a serial killer, one who’s been preying on local women for two decades, growing bolder and more ruthless with every strike.

“Wow… Innocence Road was fantastic! I was on the edge of my seat as Leanne struggled to not only come up with a suspect for what we thought was a current murder, but turns out is decades old murders and a serial killer on the loose. There were so many twists, turns, details, clues, red herrings and I was still guessing various characters fates until Griffin shared with me! That rarely happens, but two of the characters I just wasn’t sure what their fate would be… stand alone novel, or not?, I am a huge fan of Innocence Road. It’s a police procedural with crime solving, mystery, a touch of romance, gripping fight scenes, and shocking twists, all packing into one book. Griffin reminds us why she’s an auto-buy author once again with her creativity, talent, research, and uncanny ability to put us in the dirt and heat of Texas.”
