The Resource As time goes by : a novel

Summary: Television journalist Delaney Wright is on the brink of stardom after a promotion and an assignment to cover a sensational murder trial. She should be thrilled, but her growing desire to locate her birth mother consumes her thoughts. When Delaney’s friends Alvirah and her husband Willy offer to look into the mystery surrounding her birth, they uncover a shocking secret they do not want to reveal. On trial for murder is Betsy Grant, widow of a wealthy doctor who had been a victim of early onset Alzheimer's disease. When her lawyer urges her to accept a plea bargain, Betsy refuses: she will go to trial to prove her innocence. Betsy’s stepson, Alan, bides his time nervously as the trial begins. His substantial inheritance hangs in the balance—his only means of making good on payments he owes his ex-wife, his children, and increasingly angry creditors. As the trial unfolds, and the damning evidence against Betsy piles up, Delaney is convinced that Betsy is not guilty and frantically tries to prove her innocence. But her relentless pursuit of the truth outside the courtroom is putting her life in danger
