No Place Like Home
Als Lizas Mutter von ihrem Ex-Freund tätlich angegriffen wird, eilt das zehnjährige Mädchen zitternd mit einem Revolver herbei, um ihr zu helfen. Doch im Tumult geschieht das Unfassbare: Sie erschießt ihre eigene Mutter und wird zur Waise. Nicht nur das: Ihr wird außerdem unterstellt, sie habe die Tat aus Eifersucht absichtlich begangen. Mühsam gelingt es ihr mithilfe ihrer Pflegeeltern, eine neue Existenz unter fremdem Namen aufzubauen. Doch 24 Jahre später holt ihr Kindheitstrauma sie ein. Ihr Mann, dem sie nie etwas davon erzählt hat, drängt darauf, ausgerechnet in ihr Elternhaus zu ziehen. Dort beginnen sich bei ihr langsam Erinnerungslücken zu schließen, und erschüttert rekonstruiert sie, dass nicht nur der Tod der Mutter mehr als ein tragischer Unfall war, sondern auch der ihres Vaters. Aber die Zeit arbeitet gegen sie, denn schon wieder versucht ein Unbekannter, ihr einen Mord in die Schuhe zu schieben. Und schon kommt auch die perfide Verleumdungsmaschinerie aus Sensationspresse, neidischen Nachbarn und kalten Geschäftemachern wieder in Gang, die schon einmal Lizas Leben fast zerstört hätte.

Growing up under an assumed identity after accidentally shooting her mother and escaping her abusive father, Liza Barton, still fearful that her past will reclaim her, is shocked when her husband inadvertently buys her childhood home.
Hab acht auf meine Schritte Krimi ; gekürzte Lesung
Liza Barclay, aged 10, shot her mother while trying to protect her from her violent stepfather, ex-FBI agent Charley Foster. Despite her stepfather's claim that it was a deliberate act, the Juvenile Court ruled the death an accident. Many people, however, agreed with Foster and tabloids compared Liza to the infamous murderess, Lizzie Borden, pointing even to the similarity in name. Growing up with adoptive parents who tried to erase every trace of her past, her name is changed to Celia. Always, though, the fear hung over her and the family - that someday, her vengeful stepfather would reappear to harm her. Aged 25, a successful interior designer, she marries a childless sixty-year old widower and they have a son. Before their marriage, she had confided her earlier life to her husband. Two years on, on his deathbed, he tells her that he would want her to re-marry, but makes her swear never to reveal her past to anyone, so that their son would not carry the burden of this family tragedy - a promise that plunges her into a new cycle of violence. Three years later, happily re-married, Celia is shocked when her second husband presents her with a gift -- the house where she killed her mother. When the real estate agent who has made the sale recognises her and, soon after, is murdrered, Celia is accused of the crime. Once again, she is home -- the place where she is stamped as a murderess.
