Chicago Bears Womens Jersey, Award-winning mystery writer, Brad Parks, returns with his third book, The Girl Next Door, featuring amateur sleuth and newspaper reporter, Carter Ross.
Nancy Marino was forty-two-years-old and single. She waitressed at the State Street Grill, delivered Bloomfield, New Jersey\'s Eagle-Examiner early mornings; and was a Chicago Bears Womens Jersey shop steward for the International Federation of Information Workers (IFIW), Local 117.
On a hot, Friday morning in July, a speeding Cadillac Escalade struck and killed her while delivering her papers. The driver disappeared onto the Garden State Parkway; confident he committed an untraceable crime.
Who killed Nancy Marino and why?
Enter Carter Ross, an eight-year veteran news reporter for the Eagle-Examiner. Reading Marino\'s obituary, he decides to memorialize a fellow newspaper employee, even though he\'d never met her. He plans to write Chicago Bears Womens Jersey a story portraying Marino as an ordinary person, who spent her life serving others, and, whose contributions to society went unnoticed until her passing. Attending her funeral, he learns that her death is being investigated as a homicide, which ignites his inquiring mind.
Ross is an unpretentious thirty-two-year-old. Educated at Amherst College, he lives in a two-bedroom, ranch-style house with his black-and-white, domestic, shorthaired cat, Deadline. He ubiquitously dresses in Khakis and button-down shirts; and drives a five-year-old Chevy Malibu.
Many people are aware of the anemic state of print newspapers, given today\'s digital age. Longtime community newspapers have either downsized considerably, both in content and staff, or folded.
Parks weaves these challenging industry times into the book\'s plot. During the halcyon days of the newspaper in the late nineties, the Eagle-Examiner signed its thousand-plus carriers to an unprecedented twenty-year contract, which included great wages. Now, given the industry\'s tough times, the newspaper wants concessions; and the Union isn\'t yielding.
As the IFIW shop steward, could Nancy Marino have been murdered to silence her opposition to contract negotiations?
Tina Thompson is Ross\'s editor. In her late thirties and single, she\'s expressed interest in Ross purely from a \"chromosomal\" perspective. Determined to experience motherhood, she\'s suggested Ross become her Chicago Bears Womens Jersey sperm donor-nothing more.
