About this listen

Someone shot the victim in her chest five times at point-blank range and left her to die in a cheap motel. Her purse has no ID, cell phone, or car keys, and her room is registered to Benjamin Franklin. She’s no drifter, though. She has $2,000 cash in her wallet, a $10,000 watch in her purse, and a $6,000 dress on a hanger on the bathroom door.

Detective Mary Joe Court catches the case and identifies the woman as the estranged spouse of a wealthy investment advisor from St. Louis. The victim had been trying to create a new life for herself with someone she loved. Now, that will never happen. But some seemingly innocent victims are anything but innocent. Sometimes, they’re downright dangerous. The woman with the beautiful, rose-patterned dress carried her secrets to her grave. To find her killer, Joe has to unearth them… or risk being buried alongside her.

The Woman Who Wore Roses is the fifth mystery in New York Times’ best-selling author Chris Culver’s gripping Joe Court series. If you like James Patterson, David Baldacci, or Karin Slaughter, you’ll love this series.
