My Thoughts:

Wow! Some evil people will stop at nothing to keep their money flow going and their secrets hidden. No matter if innocents are dying. They will threaten anyone to keep the truth of their evil from coming into the light.

This is where Madison Steele, a border patrol officer finds herself. Her sister had a secret that she was going to expose on the pharmaceutical company she worked for. And it cost her her life. Madison is bound and determined to find out what that was and continue her sister's mission. Expose them. Even if it means working with her once upon a time sweetheart, police officer Tucker Reed.

However, now they have a bull's eye on them as they try to get to the bottom of this medicine and root out the ones that are behind pushing it on an unsuspecting populace.

This was an eye-opening story of medicine and money and those who make a profit no matter how many people are hurt. It certainly is an edge of your seat read.

I was provided a copy of this novel from the author. I was not required to post a positive review and all views and opinions are my own.

More from Darlene

The Hidden Staircase, The Secret of the Old Clock, The Sign of the Twisted Candles—these were just some of my favorite Nancy Drew books. I couldn’t get enough of them growing up! My family often saw me with my nose stuck in one of Nancy’s many tales. When I was finished with those, I’d sneak my brother’s Hardy Boy books and devour them too. This is where my love of writing and of a good mystery/suspense began.

Creating stories in the romantic suspense genre was a natural journey for me. I had always wanted to be a policewoman after watching Charlie’s Angels (they even kicked butt while wearing high heels…what could be better than that?!), Cagney and Lacey, Police woman, Murder She Wrote, etc. My love for all-things-mystery carried into my adult life. Who doesn’t love Sydney Bristow and Kate Beckett?

I enjoy creating strong female characters in a law enforcement role. Madison Steele fits the bill head on as she works to bring down a ruthless pharmaceutical company. While she has nerves of steel, I also wanted to make her vulnerable. In the beginning Madison loses her long-lost sister in a heart-wrenching crash. One she knows was not an accident. This thrusts her into a deadly pursuit of the perpetrators with her estranged high school sweetheart, Tucker Reed, by her side.

I wrote this book during the tough year our world faced living in the unknown. Madison and Tucker are stuck in their own fears but eventually find hope. Hope in the unknown and hope in knowing God is in control and with us—no matter the circumstances. We just need to know where to look.

I hope you enjoy reading Madison and Tucker’s story as much as I loved crafting it. I’d love to hear from you. You can contact me through my website www.darlenelturner.com and also sign up for Darlene’s Diary newsletter to receive exclusive subscriber giveaways.
