Fatal Witness

“Slowly and cautiously, Erica walked around the body. The curtains in the room were drawn, and there were no signs that anyone had broken in, but the chair was overturned, and magazines and several items were scattered on the floor:... a candle in a candlestick, an organizer, and, surprisingly, a ‘Scrabble’ — the box lay on the floor, and pieces with letters were scattered on the carpet. A brutal struggle, but no signs of a break-in. Did she know the killer?” Vicky Clarke is the host of a true crime podcast. In one of the episodes, she dedicated her story to an attacker who broke into the rooms of a student dormitory at night and assaulted its female residents. When Vicky’s body is found in a pool of blood in her apartment, the police suggest that the girl was close to unraveling the crimes of the maniac, as all materials for the podcast have disappeared. The case takes an unexpected turn when the truth about the brutal murder of another girl, a young immigrant doctor, who looks very much like Vicky Clarke, is revealed. Detective Erica Foster takes on the investigation into the circumstances of her death. She will have to discover what connected the two girls and who might have wished them dead.
