Publisher's summary

Poking a sleeping bear with a sharp stick is foolish. Marty Edwards is about to be very foolish.

Investigative reporter Marty Edwards has found her niche: cold cases. She loves poring over old notes, hunting down long-forgotten witnesses, and digging down through the layers of an unsolved murder case. But this time, Marty is digging where someone obviously doesn't want her. And that someone might also include the Brownsville Police Department. Why else would they assign Detective Kristen Bailey to baby-sit her?

Barely surviving two attempts on her life, Marty abandons Brownsville and the case. Danger follows her as the case turns red-hot. With Detective Bailey along for protection, they race along the Gulf Coast, neither knowing who, if anyone, they can trust. The hardest part is learning to trust each other before it's too late for their hearts - and their lives.

Great Story!!

Great story & of course the characters were extremely well played! The case was thrilling and grabbed you as it progressed. Not gonna lie I thought I had the Scorpion figured out. Twists and transitions were well played & nicely detailed. Gerri never disappoints!

Mystery and Intrigue

Great story with plenty of twists and turns. Two very different, yet strong women join forces to solve a years old cold case, and discover themselves in the process. Loved it!

Author and Narrator never disappoint

The only bad thing about this book is that it wasn’t long enough!!! I never guessed who the bad guy was! Romantic scenes were steamy. Overall a great read.
