Gloria Duncan is an illustrator and writer. She likes to read, to agitate and to talk far too loudly in the library. She lives outside of Boston, Massachusetts, with her family of ferrets and shelves full of mostly unchewed books.
The Fifth Target is her first novel.
For Detective Carolyn Hall, the rules are simple: trust your partner, follow the evidence. Partnered with well-regarded Robert White, she works the streets of New Honan investigating its darkest corners. But one blood-soaked alley murder changes everything: the key witness is Rachel Fenimore, an ER nurse who called 911, then fled the scene. White recognizes her—she treated him years ago.
