Murder Me Twice John Stell

For an attorney who doesn't handle murder cases, Tracy Brubaker can't seem to catch a break. No sooner has she successfully defended a family friend when a retired law school professor reaches out for her assistance. His former client Colin Richmond has been accused of killing a man he recently met. The motive? Richmond may have thought this man was the reincarnation of his late father--the father whose murder Richmond was tried for but acquitted of almost 30 years ago--back for revenge. The evidence seems concrete, but Tracy thinks there's more to this murder than preemptive self-defense. Her subsequent investigation reveals another possible crime in Richmond's past, a detective who may have buried exculpatory evidence, and a victim who may have set himself up for his own murder. Complicating matters is former beau and client Brian Shane, who wants to rekindle the relationship that ended more than 10 years ago. Now, Tracy must juggle her professional and personal lives in the hopes of clearing her client, while hopefully reuniting with the man she still loves, or thinks she does. It's another tricky case full of twists and turns as Tracy tries to find the truth, this time not only for her client but for herself as well.
