Description

Format: Mass Market Paperback, 269pp. ISBN: 0373264194 Publisher: Harlequin Enterprises Limited Pub. Date: May 2002 On New Year's Day, 1923, Rosewood, Florida had its own school, a baseball field, a Masonic Hall, a train station, and three churches. In less than one week it was burned to the ground. Inspired by the true story of one town's destruction at the hands of hate and intolerance, Rosewood's Ashes is a driven mystery, as well as a unique perspective on historical injustice. Returning to Florida to visit her coma-stricken father, Tory Travers prepares herself for the demons of her past, the sordid reputation she'd suffered as a senator's daughter. Accompanying her for moral support is David Alvarez long time friend, infrequent lover, and detective with the El Paso Police Department.But before the pair have a chance to confront Tory's troubled past, they are confronted with a more immediate tragedy in the vehicular manslaughter of a young woman they just met on the plane. A young woman who had told them about Rosewood and of the senator's involvement in research concerning the events that led to the town's destruction. Soon, another corpse turns up, a man well known to Tory, and Alvarez takes a personal interest in unearthing the truth about Rosewood, before Tory herself becomes a suspect or a victim.
