Casey Cox is on the
run from a crime she didn't commit. Her friend Brent has been
murdered, and she's afraid of being accused. After all her DNA is all
over his apartment. Casey knows she's in trouble. Brent was
investigating her father's supposed suicide and found proof that he
was murdered. Now whoever did it is after Casey.
Dylan Roberts is
looking for Casey. Brent's parents hired him to find the truth. Dylan
is pressed by the local law enforcement officers to find Casey, but
the more he looks into it, the more he can't believe she's guilty.
It's a race against time. He wants to find her before she's arrested
for murder.
I usually enjoy
Terri Blackstock's books, but this one was difficult to get into.
Casey is terrified getting into all sorts of bad situations, but I
found it hard to like her. Dylan is a good character. He seems
trustworthy and ready to help Casey, if she will accept the help. His
history of PTSD and flashbacks is realistic.
What I didn't like
was the ending and the fact that the main plot wasn't resolved. I
think books that tease you into the next three volumes by leaving the
plot unfinished are cheating. I did like the way the author brought
God into the story to help a very troubled young woman.
If you like stories
that are told over several books, you may enjoy this one. However, if
you don't like being left hanging until the next book, give this a
miss.
I received this book
from BookLook Bloggers for this review.
