About the Book
FBI Agent Laurel
Evertson's investigation into a scam targeting the elderly takes an
unexpected twist when key evidence leads her to Morton Wilmington, a
felon she arrested five years ago on her first undercover assignment.
That case has haunted her since, and though she's vowed to forget
Wilmington--and what she sacrificed to put him away--he is now her best
lead.Houston Police Officer Daniel Hilton fears his grandparents may be
the scammer's next targets, and he'll do anything to protect his
family--even force interagency cooperation. But he's quickly drawn to
Laurel's empathy and zeal and agrees to follow her lead . . . even if it
means teaming up with a felon.As the unlikely trio uncovers evidence
suggesting the scam is more extensive and deadly than they imagined,
both Laurel and Daniel find themselves in the crosshairs of a killer.
Together they must decide if they can trust Wilmington's claims of
redemption, or if he's leading them straight into a double cross. (Goodreads)
My Review
I loved the first book in this series and was very excited to read this one. I suppose my expectations were too high as this book wasn't as suspenseful for me as the first. The storyline was interesting because it deals a lot with the elderly which I actually thought was a great addition and twist to the storyline. Laurel's story is good personal and professional and I think most readers would enjoy this track down of the bad guy. I just couldn't get into the suspense as much and the ending didn't shock me as much as I hoped.
Four stars.
"I received this book from Tyndale House Publishers for free in exchange for an honest review."
