In a genre that too often relies on sex scenes to make up for a weak storyline, it is refreshing to find an author who not only possesses the ability to craft a well written plot, but also is meticulous with regards to her attention to detail. Ms. Holt’s experience with the Tuscon police department is evident and she masterfully pairs the knowledge garnered during her years with the force with her considerable story telling abilities. The result is a powerful book which is evocative and stays with you long after you reach the last page. This book is a rare gem!
