Blurb:
Justice can be elusive. Family secrets can be
deadly. The stakes are high, and the clock is ticking in a volatile criminal
case filled with unanswered questions. And Carrington Reed is running short on
time to piece together clues that will solve the puzzle.
Hostage negotiator Carrington Reed is called to the scene when reports come in
that fifteen hostages are being held by the Kendrix brothers in an abandoned
house in south Texas. When she arrives on site, Carrington quickly learns that
the brothers are armed and refuse to release their victims, a group of
undocumented immigrants, until the local police identify their father’s
murderer.
Working closely with Levi Ehrlich, a handsome investigative reporter who has
covered some of Carrington’s negotiations in the past, she finds herself being
undeniably drawn to him. Carrington digs deeper into the death of the
Kendrixes’ father and begins to notice that some details surrounding his death
aren’t adding up.
As Carrington investigates the brothers’ claims and tries to piece together
their motive for taking innocent people captive, it soon becomes clear that
they are trying to hide something and that revenge for their father’s death may
not be what they’re really bargaining for after all. To protect the hostages and
ensure the brothers don’t carry out the rest of their sinister plot, Carrington
must get to the bottom of one family’s secret and the truth they’re trying so
hard to hide before time runs out.
My review:
I don’t normally read “inspirationals”. My relationship with
the almighty is personal and I don’t feel the need to testify. That being said,
I really enjoyed this romantic suspense. The mystery kept me captivated. I
enjoyed watching Carrington and Levi’s journey. I stayed up way past my bedtime
reading this.
