She saw his face. Her memory buried it. The killer wants it to stay that way.
In this standalone second novel in the Timmins Mystery series, Amy Martel sees a woman being murdered. And she can’t look away.
From her apartment, Amy watches a masked man stab a woman in the street below. She runs outside to help but freezes.
Then a car pulls up. The driver honks her horn, jumps out and reaches into a box of items she is taking to charity. She grabs the only thing she can use as a weapon: a toaster. She hurls it at the attacker, knocking his mask aside. Amy sees his face. Then he turns on the woman who tried to stop him.
By the time police arrive, one woman is dead, another is fighting for her life, and Amy may be the only person who can identify the killer. There is just one problem: she can’t remember his face.
As Detective Helena Timmins helps Amy recover the missing pieces, one thing becomes increasingly clear: someone would very much like Amy to stop remembering.
Set in Ottawa, The Toaster Murder is the second book in the Timmins Mystery series, following The Onion Murder.
