The Woman in the Woods

About the book

In the picturesque Maine forest, a partially preserved corpse is unearthed. Detectives soon realize that the woman had recently given birth before her demise. However, there is no trace of the infant.

Private investigator Charlie Parker is enlisted by a lawyer to monitor the police inquiry and locate the missing baby. Parker is not the only one on the hunt, though. Another individual is following the woman's footsteps, someone with a vested interest beyond just finding a child...someone willing to leave a trail of corpses.

Meanwhile, in a home near the woods, a toy telephone starts to ring, signaling that a young boy is on the verge of receiving a call from a deceased woman.
