The mystery has three main characters, who have known each other since college: Nicole Hedges, a Special Agent for the FBI, Crime Reporter Cassidy Shaw and Federal Prosecutor Allison Pierce. The three were in a previous novel by Lis Wiehl, Face of Betrayal and are known as The Triple Threat. They work together in the cases and each has a role as well as a personal story of their own
This is a fast moving mystery; it is hard to review without giving away some important facts as there are so many stories within the story. It is a page turner and like Agatha Christie, you are always trying to wonder "who dunnit".
I found it a very emotional book as the reader gets to know Nicole, Cassidy and Allison and their feelings. There are issues such as domestic violence, immigration, fear of terrorism, drugs, politics and more in the book.
The author does a good job keeping the reader involved with the story and the characters. She uses her knowledge and experience as a lawyer for many descriptions and details
I received a complimentary copy from Thomas Nelson Publishers to read and review. The opinions are my own. Leona Olson
