THE JOURNEY BEGINS

When you are a Deputy DA in Los Angeles sometimes you ask yourself with all seriousness just exactly what happens next in the natural order of business, and personal affairs, if I’m dead? Which is exactly the name of an early story featuring Rachel Knight early in her career. Everyone must start somewhere. We will start with a look at If I’m Dead: A Rachel Knight Story by Marcia Clark.

Imagine Los Angeles at night. Ghosts of the past and future are fighting form within lonely headlights and weary street lights to decide the fate of the bustling city. And all those who call it home, work, and responsibility. Haunting in nature you can imagine deeper. You see an SUV on an isolated stretch of beach. It’s a Dodge, no, a Ford Explorer. Upon further inspection you find out that this lonely machine sitting in the moonlight like Stonehenge in the aftermath of a Pagan ritual is owned by one Melissa Gibbons. But who is Melissa Gibbons?

The next of kin is immediately found. Her husband. Her husband who asserts that Melissa has just abandoned him and all her responsibilities in his home. What do you do? If you look at the scene as it is this makes perfect sense but if you are Deputy District Attorney of LA with the experience, savvy, and almost sixth sense from seeing this type of thing before you have your own ideas. Ideas that point to murder.

But how to convince a jury that by all observations has bought the husband’s story? An heiress who is notably dissatisfied in recent days and her husband who has a habit, in fact he may have many all over town. Why wouldn’t she just leave? It’s up to Rachel and her most steady mind Detective Keller to find the truth piece by piece no matter how dark the sinister rabbit hole goes.

RACHEL BECOMES DA

Next we’ll cross-examine another early work. This time we meet up and catch up with Rachel Knight as her ambition, savvy, and even riotous wise-cracking humor, has paid off. In Guilt By Association (A Rachel Knight Novel) Marcia Clark lets the truth and evidence speak for itself.

They say the higher the peak the steeper the fall which is where this tenacious driving plot starts. Intelligence that is more fierce than every obstacle yet thrown into Rachel’s path is severely tested on a very personal level. Not only does Rachel have need to rely on whip-smart detectives to do her new demanding job but also on colleagues like Jake. There is only one problem today. Jake is found at a very “extreme” crime scene he shouldn’t have been at. And Jake shouldn’t have been dead.

Rachel has never faced such impossible circumstances. On top of this she is given her most crushing case yet which involves a young women who belongs to the who’s who of Los Angles a victim of assault. And her family demands revenge and doesn’t really care upon who revenge is exacted.

Find out how it continues because this is just the setting of the stage.
