A Secondhand Lie: A Psychological Thriller Short Story
About this ebook
Then his daughter is murdered in their own home.
The case goes cold and the family falls apart. And Dan's son Landon grows up knowing two things: his father is in prison, and his sister never got justice.
Now two decades later, Landon is done running from the past. He visits his incarcerated father to ask the one question he's never dared to say out loud: What really happened that night? Because the story he's been told doesn't add up. The more Landon digs, the more he realizes someone has been lying for a very long time. But the truth comes with a terrifying possibility.
What if his father didn't just go to prison for robbery? What if he got away with murder?
To save his father—or finally condemn him—Landon must untangle decades of secrets and face a truth he's most afraid to hear: His sister's killer may be closer than he ever imagined.
A twisty short story mystery that can be read as a standalone or as a companion book to the award-winning thriller A Secondhand Life.

About the author
To know PAMELA CRANE, you first need to know her husband. He sleeps with one eye open. He checks the knife block to make sure none are missing. Why? It could be because they have four kids and a farm full of mischievous animals. Or it could be because she writes murder mysteries, and about the occasional woman who has lost her marbles (not based on her real-life psyche, she swears!). Don't worry—her husband is safe...for now. Her books range from witty whodunnits to psychological suspense and even humorous women’s fiction thrown in for good measure. She’s a USA TODAY bestselling author of over a dozen novels (who’s counting?), but her biggest accomplishment is keeping her zoo of animals alive...and her husband in check.
