About This Book

San Antonio District Attorney Chris Sinclair has never forgotten his first real love, Jean a college girlfriend from the era of free love, a wild young woman who introduced him to a world of sex, drugs and alcohol drastically unlike his own. She left his life in college and hasn't seen her since. But when a young girl's body is found buried in a shallow grave on the outskirts of San Antonio, forensic reconstruction of the decomposed skull brings a chilling resemblance to light, A detail or two is different, but there's no doubt the face is Jean's. Like an afterimage in his mind, he sees her face in the young girl's and he knows. He knows that this is Jean's daughter, and wonders briefly if it could somehow be their daughter. The young girl died a horrible death and he vows to discover the truth, even though he fears what that might be.

As Chris begins his search, he opens doors to his own past, doors that are difficult to close again, and he comes to realize that his future will now be very different from what he expected. With psychological twits and turns that will keep the reader guessing until the very end, AfterImage tells a compelling story of life and death, or right and wrong, and of how difficult it can sometimes be to tell the difference.
