Gina Evans knows her brother was murdered—even if the police won’t believe her. After catching a quick glimpse of the evidence her brother had gathered, the same criminals are after her and her baby niece. And Gina’s only hope is the man she left behind. Despite the painful memories, private investigator Derrick Justice won’t fail Gina and her baby. Yet now, the woman he never stopped loving and the baby he’s come to adore are in a killer’s crosshairs. But can Derrick trap the cold-blooded murderer before he strikes again?
The Justice Agency: Family and law enforcement go hand in hand.
DARK TIDE is the fifth book in Ms. Sleeman’s The Justice Agency series. It does stand-alone, but readers (and fans) of Ms. Sleeman’s books will want to read the entire series.
I enjoyed getting to know Derrick better. He is a sweetheart, kind and considerate, and quick to think on his feet. I didn’t like Gina at first, but as she shared more information about herself and her past I started to like her more.
I decided that heroine’s in these books have to be a special breed because I would be dead the first time the bad guy tries to kill me. But they seem to survive multiple attacks. Really impressive.
I enjoyed reading DARK TIDE and finding out more about Derrick and what information Gina’s deceased brother was hiding. I especially wondered how they’d solve it and prove the guy guilty—especially since she gave him everything he asked for in the first attack. A must-keep-reading book that kept me on the edge of my seat.
