Secrets to the Grave (Oak Knoll #2) by Tami Hoag

A past full of secrets, a present full of lies

When Marissa Fordham, a reclusive artist, is brutally murdered,
the local community is horrified. The body might not have been found
for days but for a call to 911 and a child's voice at the end of the line. 

The police find Marissa on her kitchen floor, violently mutilated.
Lying with her head on her mother's body is Fordham's four-
year-old daughter, Haley, barely clinging to life herself.

To protect their fragile witness, the police call in Anne Leone,
child advocate. Anne not only works in the justice system, she's
about to be a key witness in the trial of the man who tried to
make her his latest victim in the See-No-Evil murders. As soon as
Anne sees little Haley, alone and terrified, her heart is stolen.

But it will be no easy task to unravel the mystery of Haley's
young life or that of her mother as Haley hasn't spoken a word
since being rescued. 

 It looks as if Marissa may take her secrets to their grave,
until one loose thread begins to unravel the shroud of lies
to reveal a truth whose than anyone imagined. A truth that
will put Anne and Haley directly in the sights of a killer.
