Reviews

"'No lie lives forever.' Police procedure, courtroom drama, compassion, superb writing, filled with numerous twists and turns-author Bailey Herrington incorporates many of my favorite subjects in The Girl in the Orange Maillot. Readers will love this mystery featuring protagonist David Elliott. My recommendation? Rest up before starting; you'll pull an all-nighter." -Donnell Ann Bell, Amazon Bestselling Author of 2020 Colorado Book Award Finalist Black Pearl: A Cold Case Suspense


"Is the death of an abusive father and husband a cult killing? Or straight revenge? David Elliott and his wife, Judy, team up to try and clear a grieving son. This meticulously constructed thriller takes us to dark and harrowing corners of the human heart. Come for the twists, stay for the humanity . . . and the truth." -Richard Cass, Author of Mickey's Mayhem, and Maine Literary Award Winner
