“Expertly plotted…Roxane, with her vibrant narrative voice, stands as a worthy successor to Sue Grafton’s Kinsey Millhone.”

Once You Go This Far is the fourth thrilling mystery from Shamus Award–winning and Anthony and Macavity Award-nominated author Kristen Lepionka.

Junior-high school nurse Rebecca Newsome was an experienced hiker—until she plummeted to her death at the bottom of a ravine in a Columbus metro park. Her daughter, Maggie, doesn’t believe it was an accident, and Rebecca’s ex-husband is her prime suspect. But he’s a well-connected ex-cop and Maggie is certain that’s the reason no one will listen to her. PI Roxane Weary quickly uncovers that the dead woman’s ex is definitely a jerk, but is he a murderer?

As she pieces together the days before Rebecca died, what Roxane finds doesn’t quite add up. From a series of trips to Detroit and across the border to a casino in Windsor, Canada, to strange calls from Rebecca’s home to a charismatic political candidate, to a women’s health organization, to a secretive church group that seems to have more information about its members than it should, Roxane needs to figure out how everything is connected before a dangerous secret gets someone else killed.

    Complex, but rewarding

    – Being the accomplished and popular mystery writer Kristen Lepionka, it’s no wonder that Allyson Ryan found it seemingly easy to read this book with aplomb and inventiveness with character voice choices. The story finds PI Roxane Weary tracking backward from the apparent suspicious death of Rebecca Newsome as she ostensibly plunged to her death from a hiking trail into a ravine. As happens often in a marital death, the husband is the key suspect. Unlike a lot of detective plots, this is complex and a page-turner. Listen on. You will be rewarded.
