A series rivaling the O'Malley's. Yes, this book rivals my until now all time favorite suspense series. With the family bond, the suspense, the loss and healing in this book. I do have to say I don't recommend this for anyone under 16 and is probably better for 17/18 or older. I hated the start of this book, HATED it! But sadly it was necessary for the plot as much as I hated it.
Warning, there is violence, several shoot outs, mentions of insanity, kidnapping, talk of murder, murder, attempted murder, and a character is killed.
Otherwise, ironically this is a wonderful novel that I love. I don't particularly like that Isabelle was a police officer since I don't agree with women being law enforcement... Don't chew me out for it, I don't care if it's unfeminine of me, I prefer to hold to my beliefs then give into the universal opinions that . . . Oh, forget that. I just have to say that this gets four stars since I didn't agree with everything but enjoyed this special suspense book from Lynette Eason, who happens to be a fantastic suspense author. I am so eager and am looking forward to reading the next book!

This book was a pretty good read. I liked the family dynamic & there was no foul language or sex. A good mystery with plenty of characters. Also the 1st book in the Blue Justice Series focusing on Izzy. ( )

I revived this book as a librarything giveaway. I enjoyed this book and by the end I didn't want to put it down so that I could find out what was going to happen. It was confusing in that there were a LOT of characters to keep track of. There were also hints along the way about a kidnapping in the past. It felt like this was the second in the series and we should have understood that kidnapping already. I don't believe this was the case. The characters themselves felt real and had faults as well as good characteristics. The sped at which the investigation took place was completely unrealistic. Getting warrants, lab results, bank information, following leads etc etc takes far longer than portrayed here. All that being said, I did enjoy the book and would read another book by this author ( )

I’m just now getting around to reading this and I feel badly. I received an ARC through early reviewers, had not gotten to it yet, but then we moved and it got lost in the unpacking shuffle. Found it this week in a box I didn’t know had books in it still and read it immediately. It was an enjoyable read, and relatively quick. The writing itself was choppier than I prefer, but it was an ARC and uncorrected and I know inconsistencies would have been fixed and more editing done. The ending seemed rushed, and I would love a more developed romance, but there was closure and a happy ending! Like I said, I actually really enjoyed the read! ( )
