Picture

First of all, a warning. There is a rape scene in the book – mostly off page and handled as tastefully as one can handle that kind of trauma, but it’s there, and some people won’t be able to read it.

On to the review! Sam and Nick – DC’s favorite couple. As they prepare to get married, Sam finds herself investigating yet another high profile murder case. When it comes to light that a Senator has been sleeping with a member of the cleaning crew – and she winds up dead – Sam knows there’s more to the story than what first appears. Her gut rarely steers her wrong, and it’s absolutely correct in this one. She finds herself investigating several political figures – some in very high places.

But the murderer is convinced he’s untouchable and begins to make threats against Sam. Meanwhile, Nick is trying to plan their wedding and keep Sam safe. To top it all off, Sam’s ex-husband is back in the story causing problems again. Sam and Nick’s relationship really seems kind of settled in this one, so Marie has introduced a new romance that is so incredibly sweet.

Detective Gonzalez (Gonzo) has just found some incredibly exciting and scary news. He’s afraid that it will tear his new relationship with Christine apart. But they are both amazing people and you just know they are meant to be together. It was a lot of fun to have this couple finding true love – even though their story wasn’t the main event – it was prominent enough that it really stands out.
