Love Ya, Kid

LOVE YA, KID

Stella Stanley is not a detective, but she is done being dismissed by the sheriff. From diner shifts to sleepless nights at her evidence-covered wall, her investigation into her dad's death becomes a fight to save the life of the next victim.

Stella Stanley, a 23-year-old waitress, is devastated when her dad is found dead on the opening day of deer hunting season. The sheriff rules it an accident, but a stranger’s map with an X on the spot where her dad was shot says otherwise. 

Her grief turns into an obsession to find the truth, and that obsession leads to thirty-five years of nearly identical deaths along the same stretch of Missouri woods. 

Worse, six years ago, a diner regular and family friend was convicted of one of those murders. Now Stella must find the killer before next deer season to stop another murder and clear her friend's name.



LOVE YA, KID is an adult mystery/thriller where Stella Stanley must find out the truth of what happened to her father at all costs.
