Bonnie Hearn Hill

A California talk radio host turns amateur sleuth to solve her mother’s murder—and prevent her own—in this mystery series debut.
 
 When Kit Doyle’s near-perfect mother tells her about the letter she’s written and locked away—a letter to be read only “if anything should happen” to her—Kit thinks she’s being melodramatic. But the next day Kit’s mother is dead—and what she reads in that letter will change Kit’s life forever.
 
 Armed with nothing but the secret letter, a tight-lipped father, and some good friends at the radio station where she works, Kit sets out to learn the truth about the shady past her mother has kept hidden for so many years.
 
 But when another dead body turns up, Kit realizes that at least one person is determined to prevent her from finding out the truth—whatever it takes.
 
 “An intriguing premise and an intricate plot.” —Library Journal
 
 “This first in a series combines an engaging mystery with some of the appeal of women’s fiction.” —Booklist

The Kit Doyle Mysteries

If Anything Should Happen

Talk radio host Kit Doyle goes undercover as a teenaged runaway in this mystery series “that will attract Erin Hart enthusiasts” (Library Journal).

Seventeen-year-old Jessica is missing. There are no clues as to why she disappeared—apart from the note she left behind: “I love you. Goodbye forever. ” It turns out that Jessica is not the first teenager to have gone missing, nor the first to have left exactly the same note.

With a family connection to the missing girl, crime blogger and radio host Kit Doyle is determined to find out what happened to her. Going undercover as a teenaged runaway, Kit discovers a violent, unpredictable, cult-like world led by a dangerous psychopath—and is pulled deeper and deeper off the grid. If Kit doesn’t find a way out soon, she’ll not only lose Jessica, but she herself will be swallowed up whole.

“This suspenseful thriller offers a thought-provoking look at the plight of teenage runaways. ” —Booklist

“Readers will admire the chutzpah with which the 27-year-old finagles her way into a teenage cabal bent on misdeeds. ” —Publishers Weekly

“Kit is a flawed individual whose weak spots spur her to help others. Her determined pursuit of the culprit results in a roller-coaster ride of suspense. ” —Library Journal

Goodbye Forever

A California crime blogger left her radio job to find missing people. Now she’s searching for her best friend in this “harrowing [and] intense” mystery (Publishers Weekly).

Farley Black, Kit’s friend and former radio co-host, is missing. He was supposed to be surfing with his girlfriend but never arrived at his Malibu Beach destination. As the last person to hear from him, Kit is determined to find out what’s happened.

Kit searches Farley’s home and what she finds there threatens her ideas about friendship, loyalty, and love. A surprising discovery makes it clear that Farley has been lying to her—and to everyone else.

Kit heads north in search of the truth. Fortunately, she’s joined in this search by her street-smart friend, Virgie, whose breaking-and-entering skills come in handy as the duo follow the signal from Farley’s phone toward a rural area on the Redwood Highway close to Mendocino. But a series of menacing incidents convinces Kit that she’s being watched. Someone is tracking her every move. As her unknown pursuer grows bolder and more reckless, Kit realizes she isn’t just looking for her friend—but running from a killer.
