Chain

Foreword Reviews 2013 Book of the Year Finalist

Everyone called the whistleblower’s death a suicide, including his own wife. But when Jude Brannock, an animal rights investigator, begins asking questions about the processing plant where the whistleblower worked, events turn even uglier. There’s something the town doesn’t want anyone to see.

Jude’s determination to get to the truth leads her to Carolyn Chapel, a teenager who has inexplicable visions of her own death – confusing to the young girl and deeply troubling to her family. The teen latches onto Jude as someone who can save her. But Carolyn may know more about the whistleblower’s death than she understands. And as Jude gets closer to finding out what the plant is desperate to keep hidden, the troubled girl’s knowledge may make her visions a reality, for both her and Jude.
