About This Book
Two grisly murders. A decades-old secret. A friendship tested by fear and revelation. There is some serious payback coming in the latest Kris Redner mystery. When they were 16, Kris Redner and Tracey Lamb thought they'd be best friends forever. One terrible incident shattered that dream, forcing Kris to flee the Ottawa Valley village of Madawaska Mills. Twenty-five years later, with two unsolved killings haunting the village, Tracey pleads for the Ottawa journalist's help. Kris can't say no to her old friend, even though she fears the truth will bubble up like swamp gas, to reveal her darkest secret.PRAISE FOR THE KRIS REDNER MYSTERIESDenley's clean, crisp writing never takes priority over the pace of the plot, which drives along as smoothly as the SUVs favoured by the town's better class. The plot twists and turns like upstate New York's mountain roads. - Ottawa CitizenBottom line. I enjoyed One Dead Sister. There are a lot of popular female sleuths out there and Kris Redner deserves to have a place among them. The trick to any good mystery is to create suspense, keep the reader guessing, and Denley does that to a tee. - Ottawa SunDenley has many fans in the Ottawa area, but One Dead Sister deserves a wider audience. - National PostSpiked is an engrossing political thriller and crime story, well-paced and populated by convincing characters. The dialogue is crisp, and the atmosphere believable, informed by years of experience in the Ottawa scene. - Ottawa Review of Books
