Juneberry Lipstick

After thirty years, a legendary case and the woman who named it walk back into the same room — both writing memoirs, neither willing to fold.

Chief Day organizes a team of expert investigators while creating a firestorm in The Eyes of Perfection. He continues to develop his case log in Camilla’s Safe Haven. As that work gets underway, Chief Day decides to complete his memoir, scavenging through thirty years of case notes. One particular case includes Juneberry Lipstick — a name that has become the topic of his office briefings. On the opposing side of the law, Juneberry Lipstick orchestrates a plan to reunite with Chief Day. After nearly thirty years, who knew the pair would have this unconventional encounter? Will this spark a re-investigation, or will Chief Day call it quits? Both sides appear to have no immediate plans to fold. Juneberry Lipstick spares Chief Day no remorse as she prepares the publication of her own memoir — and a new era begins.

A duel of memoirs. A restoration of vintage wounds.
