“The whodunit is terrific with its ties to the late nine-teenth century atrocities as Stacy Dittrich provides a unique voice with a fresh brisk thriller starring a heroine who resonates with readers.”

Midwest Book Review
“A creepy ghost story lies at the heart of Dittrich’s second thriller starring Detective CeeCee Gallagher. The crime is horrific and puzzling, and Dittrich does an excellent job laying out a clever procedural that is hauntingly laced with eerieness. A book to send true chills down the spine.”

“
Mary Jane’s Grave
provides a fast-paced story line with a ghostly flair, emotional turmoil and multi-generational twists.”
—Fresh Fiction
“Dittrich explores every parent’s nightmare in this chilling police procedural. The drama is intense and the plot terrifying as Dittrich’s police detective heroine leads readers through an intricate maze set to entrap her. CeeCee Gallagher is a highly complex heroine whose private life is in shambles but whose dedication to the job is impeccable.”

The Mansfield News Journal
“Stacy Dittrich is an absolute master at devising and then executing a story that is not only realistic but downright chilling. Dittrich’s law enforcement background, coupled with her command of descriptive adjectives, made it nearly impossible for me to put
The Devil’s Closet
down. She captured the ultimate fear and terrifying reality of a child sexual victim at the hands of a heinous predator.”
—Robin Sax, Los Angeles County Deputy District Attorney—Sex Crimes Division, author of
Everything Parents Need to Know about Predators and Molesters
“CeeCee Gallagher is the real McCoy—gritty and tough, but with smooth edges. She embodies what a true detective needs to be.”
—Andrew Peterson, author of
First to Kill
“A terrific thriller.”
