When a retired sheriff’s deputy is shot to death in his home, his troubled teenage stepson, Evan, becomes the prime suspect. Even more incriminating, the boy disappeared from the scene of the crime.
Desperate to find her son, Evan’s mother begs PI Lance Kruger for help. She knows her son is innocent. Kruger and defense attorney Morgan Dane want to believe that too, but the evidence against the boy is damning. Just as the trail goes cold, another deputy vanishes. His shocking connection to Evan’s stepfather throws the investigation into chaos as Lance and Morgan fear the worst…that Evan is the killer’s new target.
With so many secrets to unravel, will Lance and Morgan find him before it’s too late?

My Thoughts…
Morgan Dane is back with a new case to solve and she is taking no prisoners. I love Morgan Dane. She attacks each new case with a resolve to solve it no matter who gets in her way. While Morgan doesn’t work against the police, she doesn’t do things the same way they do. Her gut leads her down paths that are dangerous, her heart doesn’t let her ever give up, and her brain takes the clues she finds and put them in an order that let her find the answers that she needs.
The case is the focus of the book but the relationship between Lance Kruger and Morgan Dane is a part of the story I look forward to. The love between them is sweet, strong, and perfect. Lance lets Morgan be Morgan, he supports her, helps her, and guides her when needed all while helping her be the best mom, daughter, and lawyer she can be. He loves her three young children and makes their family complete. Morgan has a good life but with Lance it makes it even better. They work perfectly together but their love makes their personal lives just as perfect.
Melinda Leigh writes fast past, crime novels that show that things are not always what they seem. With each new release, I am excited to see what will happen next.
