I was pulled in on the first page.
Heroine, Carolina Slade is doused with lemonade
and off to confront the teenaged culprit. As the
day wears on she learns the young teen is killed in a car accident.
This is just the tip of the iceberg. She
is pulled into an investigation by the governor. She also encounters a
belligerent DEA agent, who just happens to be her boyfriend’s former wife.
Drugs, cover-up, and death plague her.
Add to
this the disappearance of her sister and her boyfriend’s missing sister. Can
she unravel the entire mess, keep her family intact, retain her job, and still
have a meaningful relationship?
Absolutely, follow Carolina Slade on a journey to solve the case she was
assigned, discover who is behind it and why, reunite the missing sisters, hold
her family together, and strengthen her relationship.
Carolina Slade is an investigator for the
director of the Department of Agriculture. Her job is relatively simple
investigate the anomalies in agriculture. Monitor where the money from the
department goes. But Slade manages to step out of the norm and immerse herself
in the thick of things, bringing danger and suspense to the story.
C.
Hope Clark brings together the workings of the government with a wonderful dash
of southern living and a character who embodies both. Carolina Slade works
because she is believable. She could be your next door neighbor. She’s human
and likeable without being perfect. I can hardly wait to see what is in store
for her next.
