Loretta A Crime Thriller with Psychological Suspense

Nadija Mujagic

A stranger, a murder, and a town on the brink.


Love gone astray.


In the tranquil town of Athol, Loretta's mundane life takes an unexpected twist when a mysterious stranger, stranded by car trouble, knocks on her door one night. Overcoming her initial hesitations, Loretta extends hospitality and allows the enigmatic visitor to stay overnight.


But the following day, Athol is shaken by the shocking news of a young woman found brutally murdered on the outskirts of town. No one seems to be looking at the stranger, while the tight-knit community points fingers at Loretta, citing her eccentricities as reason enough to label her the prime suspect.


While Loretta finds herself thrust into a nightmarish reality, at the epicenter of a storm of suspicion, the true perpetrator of the heinous crime remains at large. But the truth is more terrifying than anyone could have guessed.


Read this gripping thriller now and uncover the chilling truth in Athol's heart-pounding tale of murder, deception, and an unexpected twist that will leave you breathless!


Perfect for fans of Noelle Ihli and Jennifer Hillier

In the sleepy little town of Athol, Loretta’s quiet life takes a turn when a mysterious stranger knocks on her door one night. Loretta extends her hospitality and offers the man a place to stay. However, it quickly becomes apparent that things are not as they seem.

When a brutal murder is discovered on the outskirts of town, everyone immediately assumes she committed it. Loretta does not have the best reputation around town, but she is determined the new stranger has something to do with the murder.

This book was full of twists and turns and I loved it!
