The Other Girl by Erica Spindler

Officer Miranda Rader of the Hammond PD in Louisiana is known for her honesty, integrity, and steady hand in a crisis—but that wasn’t always so. Miranda comes from Jasper, just south of Hammond, a place about the size of a good spit on a hot day, and her side of the tracks was the wrong one. She’s worked hard to leave the girl she used to be behind and earn respect in her position as an officer.
However, when Miranda and her partner are called to investigate the murder of one of the town’s most beloved college professors, they’re unprepared for the gruesomeness of the scene. This murder is unlike any they’ve ever investigated, and just when Miranda thinks she’s seen the worst of it, she finds a piece of evidence that chills her to the core: a faded newspaper clipping about a terrible night from her long-buried past. Then another man turns up dead, this one a retired cop, and not just any cop—Clint Wheeler, the cop who took her statement that night. Two murders, two very different men, two killings that on the surface had nothing in common—except Miranda. 14 years ago.
And when her fingerprints turn up at the scene of the first murder, Miranda once again finds herself under the microscope, her honesty and integrity doubted, her motivations questioned. Alone again, the trust of her colleagues shattered, Miranda must try to trust the instincts she’s pushed down for so long, and decide what’s right—before it’s too late.

Review: Thank you NetGallley for the copy of The Other Girl by Erica Spindler that I read and reviewed.
This book was one heck of a read. At first I thought it was going to be a boring book that I was going to know everything halfway through. Man was I wrong. Spindler was full of surprises with this book and by the time I finished The Other Girl I was left speechless. Just the way I love to be left after I read a great suspense book.
This is a must read for suspense fans and for Spindler fans as well. As I said before it is full of surprises and twists and turns that will keep that reader on their toes throughout the entire book. The characters are all excellent and likeable and you can't help but want everyone to get their acts together to right answer in the case.
I am giving The Other Girl five out of five stars.
