Cross Her Heart (Bree Taggert #1) by Melinda Leigh




Blurb:
A homicide detective’s violent family history repeats itself in #1 Amazon Charts and Wall Street Journal bestselling author Melinda Leigh’s novel of murder, secrets, and retribution.

For more than twenty-five years, Philadelphia homicide detective Bree Taggert has tucked away the nightmarish childhood memories of her parents’ murder-suicide…Until her younger sister, Erin, is killed in a crime that echoes that tragic night: innocent witnesses and a stormy marriage that ended in gunfire. There’s just one chilling difference. Erin’s husband, Justin, has vanished.

Bree knows how explosive the line between love and hate can be, yet the evidence against her troubled brother-in-law isn’t adding up. Teaming up with Justin’s old friend, former sheriff’s investigator and K-9 handler Matt Flynn, Bree vows to uncover the secrets of her sister’s life and death, as she promised Erin’s children. But as her investigation unfolds, the danger hits close to home. Once again, Bree’s family is caught in a death grip. And this time, it could be fatal for her.

My review:
Cross Her Heart is the first in what looks to be an exciting new series. Bree Taggert is a homicide cop who left the town of her birth and rarely if ever goes back. When her sister calls for help Bree is forced back home and to deal with the issues she left behind. Bree is smart, driven and flawed. This mystery gives us several suspects and motives. Bree is used to that but family not so much. This book will suck you in and not let you go till long after the last page,
