BOOK BLURB
One offers a helping hand. The other is your worst nightmare…
Social media influencer, Elly Parker, had the perfect life, that is until she discovered her husband had been having an affair with her best friend.
But as hurt, betrayed, unmoored as Elly is, she has made it her mission to help others in need. Even strangers.
When Elly meets a man on the steps to the subway platform, crutches in one hand and a yellow suitcase by his feet, she can’t help but feel sorry for him.
Just as he planned.
This small act of kindness sets off a change of events more terrifying than anything she ever could imagine.
To survive, Elly will need to convince the world what happened to her was real. She needs a lawyer who can bend the rules to find the truth. Eddie Flynn and his team must find the stranger with the yellow suitcase. But little do they know this cunning killer is a master manipulator and is always one step ahead.

MY REVIEW
Two Kinds of Stranger is the ninth book in the Eddie Flynn series. Eddie is a defense attorney who takes on tough cases.
In Two Kinds of Stranger, Eddie defends a social media influencer accused of killing her husband and best friend. The influencer, known for her Good Samaritan acts, helped the wrong person, and became a prime suspect. Meanwhile, the reader gets a glimpse into what really happened, and how the killer keeps slipping through the cracks.
Eddie works the case to clear his client, but he also has a lot of other excitement going on in his life. Fast-paced and entertaining. This legal thriller keeps the reader wanting more.
I received a digital copy of this book from the publisher via Edelweiss in exchange for an honest review.
