She rose from the ashes of her past.

Now someone wants to throw her back into the fire.

In the small town of Silverton, Ohio, crime runs big. Court advocate, Elizabeth Strong, knows this all too well and doing everything she can to stop it. She has devoted her life to helping women escape dangerous, narcissistic men. She did it herself years ago sending a man to prison. And he’s had plenty of time to plot his revenge.

While helping a prominent woman navigate the court system, Elizabeth falls prey to a mysterious stalker and Detective Martinez is assigned to her case. When it becomes clear that her client is the target of a murder for hire, Elizabeth and Martinez team up to catch the killer. The client’s husband is rich, connected, and the number one suspect. Is he also sending Elizabeth a message to back off?

Although the one man Elizabeth fears is still behind bars, Martinez suspects he’s somehow involved. It wouldn’t be the first time a prison inmate got to someone on the outside. As the evidence builds in her client’s case, the danger escalates in her own. The tangled web connecting the two together begins to unravel and it’s soon realized nothing is ever as it seems...

5.0 out of 5 stars Steady pace of action and suspense kept my interest throughout the story

It’s a good story that kept my interest but shouldn’t have ended with a cliffhanger so that I have to buy the next book. If this one had a good ending I would buy the next book anyway. I shouldn’t b forced to buy the second one cuz the first book ended in the middle of the storyline. The characters r likable and the storyline contained action and suspense. I really enjoyed it.

2.0 out of 5 stars Just OK.
Reviewed in Australia on May 19, 2016

This was just OK. It needed some proof reading. Shuttered for shuddered, admiralty for admiration, 'could of ' for ' could have ' , drug as a past tense for the verb 'to drag ' to name a few. I found it difficult to like the characters. They came across as shallow and superficial. The sexual innuendo and ' banter ' between characters who have just met was unpleasant, and the popping of Valium followed by copious quantities of wine to deal with problems could have been dealt with better. And too much ' smirking ' and looking ' snidely '. Smirk and smile are not the same. I doubt I will read another book by this author.

Great Characters + Great Story Line = Great Read! Beware! This is a true series, where the end of one leads directly into the beginning of the next, do you'll want to read them in order.

4.0 out of 5 stars "Sketchy"
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 31, 2021

This was like the curate's egg, good in parts. I liked the main character, but was less keen on her pal, China. I can forgive the odd typo, but just as I thought the story was coming to a logical conclusion, there was the inevitable cliffhanger. Another forty pages and the whole thing could have been tied in a neat bow, If it had, I'd be more inclined to follow the series, but how many more cliffhangers are there to come?
