I have some very exciting news today! The first book in my new mystery series – Lynn Rivers Mysteries – is done! It’s called The Forgotten Girl and follows FBI Special Agent Lynn Rivers as she investigates the gruesome murder of a young woman she watched grow up. And if this wasn’t horrific enough, the crime itself is eerily similar to another that Lynn has had to survive.
Twenty years ago, her best friend was killed only a few short miles from the spot where the new victim was found. That case was never solved and it has never stopped haunting Lynn. Catching this killer will mean raking up the past Lynn has spent two decades running away from. And this time, it could very well be the death of her.
The book will be available in Spring, 2024, but I’ve figured out a way to get it to you early! I’m running a Kickstarter campaign where you will be able to get the book in early January… or even sooner depending on how things go.
Here’s the link to the Kickstarter:

More about the book…
The Forgotten Girl (Lynn Rivers Mysteries, Book One)
An FBI Special Agent’s violent past collides with the present in LJ Bourne’s new blood-chilling thriller of murder, rage and dark secrets.
A dead girl in the woods. A well-known suspect. Twenty-year-old secrets coming to light.
Special Agent Lynn Rivers is sent to investigate a nightmare of a case. The mutilated body of her closest friend’s daughter has been found at a campsite. Lynn has known the victim all her life. From the outset it’s clear this will be one of the hardest cases she’s ever worked on. But she is determined to see it through, no matter what she finds.
That promise gets harder and harder to keep as suspects are thin on the ground and the main one is a man Lynn once knew well. A man who was the prime suspect in the death of another of Lynn’s friends twenty years ago—a cold case that still haunts her.
The two murders are different, yet eerily similar. To find the killer, Lynn will have to face all the dark ghosts of her past.
And this time, she might not survive it.
