Dead Copy by Kit Frazier

Cauly MacKinnon is an obituary writer wanting to become a real reporter for the Austin Sentinel.  Cauly is asked to write a fake obit to make a key witness in a trail disapper until his testimony.  The witness is gunned down in front of her and as he is dying she promises to look out for his sister, Faith.  Faith disappears without a trace the night her brother is killed.  There are several interesting characters that keep the storey line fresh and interesting.  The plot weaved until the end which I like. 819 pages in the Nook HD version.
