Nichelle
Clarke is a crime reporter for the Richmond Times. She doesn’t
just wait for stories to come her way. She spends her time
listening to the police scanner. She also seems to be ahead
of the police in figuring out that the deaths of two drug
dealers weeks apart are connected. She is also covering a
fatal boat explosion on the James River. Five are dead including
two cops and a pitcher for the Richmond Generals.
Just
when things are slowing down a bit, Nicey gets a call from
a narcotics cop. It seems the money and the drugs from both
drug deaths are no longer in the evidence room. The cop warns
her to be careful, as a crooked cop will stop at nothing to
stay free. Nichelle will have to put all the puzzle pieces
together to solve these crimes.
Things
to ponder: Who gave the order for the cops to be out on the
police boat? Where is the missing Commonwealth Attorney? Will
this be the story that will get Nichelle noticed by the Washington
Post?
This
is one heart pounding story. It packs a lot of punch. There
were more twists and turns than on a roller coaster. LynDee
– I can’t wait to read the next book in the series.
