Publisher's summary

Rachel Carver’s career with the North Carolina Bureau of Investigation came to a shuddering halt after her last case led to the collateral death of an innocent woman and a shameful cover-up by her superiors. She’s turned in her badge and is settling into a new life as a legal investigator - but Rachel’s past won’t leave her alone. An anonymous tip leads her to investigate a possible link between a recent grizzly murder and the case that ruined her career.

With a new set of clues to run down, Rachel is determined to uncover the truth once and for all. But the killer strikes again, and in a flurry of confusion, Rachel gets pinned for a double homicide. On the run and desperate for answers, she peels back the layers of the victims’ lives - and discovers a shocking litany of murder and lies that now threatens to claim even more victims. Even if Rachel can prove her innocence, she might not be able to save her own life.

Five Star Mystery...

This second book in the Rachel Carver series is equally as good as the first (Among the Dead). This picks up where the first ends.
When Rachel Carver left the SBI it was because of a shooting her supervisor tried to convince her was righteous but she knew it was not. Rachel is working with a journalist/friend to find out and expose the real reason behind the shooting of an innocent woman. Then the journalist and a female cop are murdered and Rachel is framed. On the run from both the police and the murderers she will use all of her training from the SBI as well as her few loyal friends to keep ahead of both and solve multiple murders.
With many colorful and still believable characters along with a plausible storyline this book kept me absorbed from beginning to end.
Lesa Lockford does an outstanding job narrating. She reminds me very much of Lauren Ezzo.
This book has my HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION.
