Publisher's summary

Gathering Dark is a new stand-alone thriller set in Los Angeles from number-one New York Times and Globe and Mail best-selling author Candice Fox.

A convicted killer. A gifted thief. A vicious ganglord. A disillusioned cop. Together they’re a missing girl’s only hope.

Dr. Blair Harbour, once a wealthy, respected pediatric surgeon, is now an ex-con down on her luck. She’s determined to keep her nose clean and win back custody of her son. But when her former cellmate begs for help to find her missing daughter, Blair is compelled to put her new-found freedom on the line.

Detective Jessica Sanchez has always had a difficult relationship with the LAPD. And her inheritance of a multi-million dollar mansion as a reward for catching a killer has just made her police enemy number one.

It’s been 10 years since Jessica arrested Blair for cold-blooded murder. So when Jessica opens the door to the disgraced doctor late one night she expects abuse, maybe even violence. What comes next is a plea for help....

Great ride!

I found this book because I'm a fan of the crimson lake novels. This book is original, and entertaining and the character development is spot on. It's not exceptional, but absolutely worth the credit.

Very disappointed

After Ted Conkaffey stories this is dreadful. Full of plots, subplots that were just not plausible. I was so anxious to read her next book and was appalled. It actually felt like a novel Candice Fox would have written at the beginning of her career. So sad

terrible

plot is juvenile. Whoever read allowed had the most grating voices for the characters. Quit after 7th chapter and I always finish books..until this dreadful pick.

strong heroines

I liked that Blair & Jessica became friends & I liked that a few of the "bad" guys were shown in a softer light.Sometimes you just want somebody good to be the winner.If your looking for something riveting to read,
Candice Fox does not dissapoint,my new favorite author !

Wow!

Candice Fox writes outstanding crime fiction! This story kept me guessing throughout and had a satisfying ending. I’d love to see these interesting women in more stories.

Easy listen

Let me say this was a very good book, but I rarely give 5 stars. Easy to follow and a good story.

While a huge fan of this author this book was awfu

I really hoped for more.
First, crips and gangs need to go. The stereotypes were disappointing.

Skip this.
