5.0 out of 5 stars
Vivid and exciting, 15 Mar 2003
Investigative reporter, Kelly Robolo, used to be in good with the police, especially with Detective Nick McBride. but while helping a friend who was being forced to pay for "protection" in Chinatown, she was shot and (undercover) Detective Matt Kolvic was killed. Now the police shunned her, harassed her, and did not answer calls if she was the victim of any crime.While still on medical leave, her closest friend, Victoria Bowman, called her for help. Her husband, Jonathan, was missing. Soon there was evidence of an affair and possible drug trafficking from the casino in which he was an executive of. Swallowing her pride, Kelly went to Nick for help. He promptly told her to get lost! Nick's father used to work, high on the food chain, at the same casino that Jonathan had. He was soon convinced that Jonathon's disappearance and his father's murder a year ago were somehow linked. The widow of Matt also found out that her husband was more than "undercover", he had actually been part of the protection ring! Nick was positive that was connected as well. Soon Nick and Kelly are forced to join together in hopes of figuring out truth from lies and set ups. But more than one person had a grudge against Kelly, and Matt had his share of problems as well. ***** A Police Thriller and a Modern Contemporary all-in-one! This one catches its readers and holds onto them for dear life! Fast paced, full of action, twists, and surprises! I see awards in the future for this one!
