She also discovers cold case files that belonged to her mother, a disgraced police detective who died in a car accident when Gus was eight.<br /> Is Gus ready to learn the truths that culminated on one terrible August night, more than a decade earlier, when lives were taken, and secrets were presumed buried forever?</p> <p><a href="https://durhamcounty.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S217C271778">Click here for format availability from the Durham library</a>.</p> <p>Physical copies will be available at the North Regional Information Desk while supplies last.</p> <p>Registration is required to receive the Zoom link to attend the event.</p> <p>E-mail Bob with any questions: rskesler@dconc.gov</p>
