Justice Delayed - Sarah Hamaker

Journalist Brogan Gilmore had been a rising star when an unethical shortcut on a story leads to his fall from grace. A chance encounter with convicted murderer Melender Harman a few months after her release from prison provides Brogan with a chance for career redemption-if he can land an interview with her.

After serving her 17-year sentence, Melender has one objective: To uncover the truth about what happened to her cousin the night the toddler disappeared. When Brogan pursues her for an exclusive story, she reluctantly agrees if he'll help her reexamine the original investigation into Jesse's presumed kidnapping and murder.

While re-investigating the case, Brogan struggles to keep his objectivity as he begins to believe Melender is innocent of the crime-and starts to envision a possible future together. Then a shocking discovery throws their relationship-and investigation-into turmoil.

As Brogan and Melender come closer to solving what happened to Jesse, will their budding relationship survive the truth?
