Behind Closed Doors
For twenty years, they had been closer than sisters, sharing girlhood secrets, their hopes and dreams for the future—and a soul-searing promise. Melissa was the only one who knew what had really happened to Jannie beyond the sacred walls of the Mormon Temple the night that changed her life forever….
UNTIL HER BEST FRIEND VANISHED WITHOUT A TRACE.
Now Melissa has gone missing, just days after entrusting Jannie with a mysterious box that someone would kill to possess. And someone has—leaving in their murderous wake an innocent victim and a trail of blood that leads to the heart of Jannie’s hidden burden. Desperate to protect her secret, and to find out what has happened to Melissa, Jannie trusts no one. Not the stranger whose piercing green eyes have already seen too much, nor the family and friends whose familiar fold may be shielding a cold-blooded killer who is lurking...BEHIND CLOSED DOORS.

About Wives and Sisters
Allison Jensen loved to play in the woods with her best friend. Until her friend disappeared. When the authorities found no leads, they left the kidnapping—and murder—unsolved.
Can Allison find the truth now, nearly fifteen years later?
Here's what two readers say about Wives and Sisters
Natalie,
Because I read your whole book yesterday, I didn't go to the bank and dry cleaners, nor clean the bathrooms. Luckily, my kids are all grown and I have the luxury of reading all day on Saturdays. I COULD NOT PUT IT DOWN.
Its emotional truth made me cry in many places. This is real life in Utah. Your characters are not exaggerations. Your story is plausible and chilling, like little islands of sanity in the sea of insanity that is Mormonism. I have to couch almost everything I say while teaching English at a Utah high school because of the dominant culture.
I have a friend who is an exmo English teacher like me, and we will and discuss your book together, when she gets hers from Amazon.
I am going to recommend your book to anyone who can handle the truth. Thank Mother Earth for the Internet. It keeps me sane. And thank you for daring to write a compelling murder mystery about our truly strange culture. There are so many more stories that deserve your exciting treatment.
Love,
A Utah reader
:-) I loved your book. I bought it Monday and finished it Tuesday afternoon. Wow!!! It was interesting and riveting. Ever since I finished it I have been looking desperately for your first one. Unfortunately I have had no luck so far. After reading the first two chapters of your next one I am waiting anxiously for it as well. You have just become one of my favourite writers right up there with Dean Koontz.
Thank you
Teresa Cavanaugh
I just finished your book Wives and Sisters. I have to say that book was GREAT! The plot build up, the character building. You could see how Allison’s personality and life changed and developed, and how she matured through the book.
I started the book at 3 pm and finished it at 1 am. I couldn’t put down the book. There are only a few books that I just can’t put down, and now yours is included. I can’t wait for your next book to come out.
I hope you continue to write, you're a great author.
--Gin.
