I've only read one book by Jane Adams, who has created several different series over the last thirty years. But I liked the one I read, which was a ARC from Adams' Rina Martin series. And right now, Joffe's free Friday/weekend book is another of Adams' books,
Two Little Blonde Girls, which is the first in a different series - the Naomi Blake series. So I'll get to try another book/series for free, assuming my TBR pile ever gets tamed a bit.
It's also worth noting that this was originally titled
Mourning the Little Dead - I do wish Joffe would quit changing the titles on the books they re-publish.

Meet Naomi Blake, an ex-policewoman who lost her sight in a tragic accident which maybe she shouldn’t have survived. But she never lost her thirst for justice. Discover a compelling series of British mysteries from a bestselling author.
They were two little blonde girls, but one of them never came home.
It’s been a long time since ex-copper Naomi Blake has heard Helen’s name. Naomi was twelve years old when her best friend went missing on the way to school in their small seaside town in Lincolnshire.
Now, finally, after twenty-three years, there’s a confession in a sealed envelope. And it’s shockingly close to home.
The note says Helen’s body is buried in the foundations of a house on Lansdowne Road.
Naomi may not be a detective anymore but she never lost her investigative instincts.
And with her guide dog, Napoleon, by her side, she wants answers to dark, long-buried questions.
Because perhaps other little girls were taken by the same evil man.
This utterly gripping crime mystery is perfect for fans of Ann Cleeves, Tana French and Val McDermid.
Please note this book was previously published as Mourning the Little Dead. It is a revised edition and errors have been corrected.
