The Fall by John Lescroart, Amazon Kindle format

Late one night, a seventeen-year-old African American foster child Tanya Morgan falls from the overpass above San Francisco's Stockton tunnel, landing on the windshield of a car driving on the street below. She is killed instantly. But did she fall … or was she pushed?

Homicide has recently been accused of dragging its feet in identifying suspects in cases where the victims are African American so the case becomes front-page news by the end of the investigation's first day. Rushing to produce a convictable suspect, inspectors focus their attention on a naive and idealistic young man named Greg Treadway. Greg is a middle school teacher with the Teach for America program and a volunteer as a Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) for foster children, where his client is Tanya's twin brother Shawn. At first, the only thing connecting him to Tanya's death is the fact that they shared a meal earlier that night. But soon enough, elements of that story seem to fall apart … and lawyer Dismas Hardy's daughter Rebecca finds herself drawn into the defense of young man who is perhaps not all that he had originally appeared to be.

When her six-year-old nephew vanishes from a neighborhood carnival, Aubrey Lynd's safe, snow-globe world fractures; it shatters when the FBI's investigation raises questions about her own family that Aubrey can't answer.

Aubrey picks apart the inconsistencies to expose the first of many lies: a ransom note — concealed from the FBI — with a terrifying and impossible ultimatum. Aubrey doesn't know what to believe or whom to trust. The abduction is clearly personal — but why would someone play a high-stakes game with the life of a child? The more she presses for answers, the more Aubrey is convinced that her mother is hiding something.

Desperate to save her young nephew, Aubrey must face harsh truths and choose between loyalty to her family and doing the right thing. And she'd better hurry, because vengeance sets its own schedule, and time is running out.
