Inherent Clarity
Author: Robin Mahle
AVAILABLE
Amazon
In recent years, Riley Thompson has developed a gift, if anyone would really call it that. The ten year old girl from a small town in Indiana doesn’t understand why she can feel what others feel, or see what others have seen. She only knows the hurt upon looking into the eyes of her mother—the beneficiary of her father’s recent run of bad luck. A streak that has hardened his heart and often finds him drowning in the bottom of a bottle. She tries hard to be just like the other fifth graders, but life at home is hard and the pain is difficult to endure.
It isn’t until the day Riley meets Carl Boyd, a Vietnam veteran, that everything changes. Visions of a terrible past, not just from war, but from a life that has stolen much from him, begins to surface in Riley’s mind. But this is far more intense and frightening than anything she has experienced before.
Riley discovers her gift is quickly evolving and finds herself swimming in the memories of Carl Boyd, and experiencing a past he can’t put behind him. Even more troubling; perceiving a future of which he doesn’t yet know—a future filled with danger.
All are reluctant to come to terms with Riley’s ability, especially her father. But then, he has seen this before.

Author Description:
Bestselling Author, Robin Mahle, lives with her husband and two children in Arizona. Robin found her passion for writing, which later became her second career, after spending nearly 20 years in the construction industry.
Having always been a lover of books, Robin attributes her creativity to the wonderful overseas adventures she has shared with her husband of 14 years. Backpacking (or certainly close to it), throughout Europe and having lived in England, opened her mind and with that came a steady stream of story ideas inspired by her author- idols in the thriller/suspense genre.
Keep an eye out for the next KATE REID novel, coming early this summer!
LAW OF FIVE, book three in the bestselling REDWOOD VIOLET mystery/suspense series is available now. Books one and two are fan favorites and should not be missed.
Her other bestselling novels include the exciting corporate thriller, LANDSLIDE and the supernatural/suspense novel, BEYOND THE CLEARING.

Law of Five
- Redwood Violet Book 3
The nationwide manhunt for a killer begins and the media quickly dubs him the “Highway Hunter.” Bodies left roadside on display with horrific markings; a calling card. But this case is miles away from Katie Reid and her life with Detective Marshall Avery.
That is, until she gets the call from her old friend and reporter, Marc Aguilar, who believes that the killer could be coming their way.
With Katie’s work at the San Diego Police Department and her recent personal struggles, questions are raised about the future. She resists the urge to consider Marc’s request, knowing Marshall will insist that this isn’t their fight.
However, when an acquaintance is suspected of a murder all too similar to that of the so-called Highway Hunter, a dark shadow is cast upon the city. Now, the investigation is dropped at the doorstep of the SDPD and so is Katie’s friend, FBI Agent Nick Scarborough.
With growing evidence suggesting there could be more than one killer, four lives have already been taken. Who will number five be?
