Guilty or Not

Zogg honed her craft with this work in her "R. A. Huber Mystery Series." Rachel Penrose is standing trial for the murder of her fiance, Steven Moretti, a philanderer of colossal proportions. The evidence against Rachel and her motive for killing him is undisputable. Everyone is convinced of her guilt, except her old friend Jonathan Lighthart, who believes in her innocence and hires R. A. Huber to find the real culprit. Huber accepts the challenge, which puts her and her young assistant, Andi, on a cruise to Alaska, and ultimately on a frantic race against time. Days before the trial, Huber gets a breakthrough, but the villain cannot risk having her testify and launches a brutal attack, landing her in the hospital in critical condition.
