Secrets to Die For (Jackson Mystery/Thriller #2)
Social worker Raina Hughes visits the home of a young boy she’s been assigned to monitor and things quickly turn ugly. Later, when she’s found brutally murdered, Detective Jackson thinks it’s an open-and-shut case against the boy’s ex-con father.
Then new evidence points to an attacker who’s becoming more violent with each assault. Raina’s lover, Jamie, knows what the victims have in common, but won’t tell for fear of revealing her own secrets. When Jamie disappears, Jackson must uncover the truth before anyone else dies.

“Secrets to Die For is a fascinating mystery that genre fans will relish.”—Midwest Book Review
“I recently ripped through Secrets to Die For, the second in Eugene author L.J. Sellers’ Detective Jackson series. It’s the kind of fiction where the writing gets out of the way and allows you to read on autopilot until you figure out who did it. Maybe all mysteries are this way, but I had to stay up until 2 a.m. to finish it.”—The Register Guard
