Publisher Description

 

She never imagined her new teaching job would lead to murder …

 

Recently divorced. Broke. Living in a new city. Charlotte Papadopoulos is determined to rebuild her life.

 

Desperate for a fresh start, she takes a job teaching at the county jail, where she forms an unexpected bond with her students—women on the wrong side of the criminal justice system.

 

But when Charlotte finds her landlord dead, her newfound connection with her students tests her loyalties—and puts her in the crosshairs of a killer.

 

Warned by a handsome detective not to get too close to the women she teaches, Charlotte must choose between keeping her head down and seeking justice. But as she delves into her students' lives outside the classroom, she uncovers dangerous secrets that threaten everything she's trying to rebuild.

 

Are her students responsible for her landlord's death? Or is there more to the crime than meets the eye?

 

The Cruelest Month is a gripping, fast-paced debut, and the first book in an amateur sleuth mystery series. It will keep you guessing until the last shocking twist.
