Helen Grace is born

Now we finally know why she's a cop who goes by the name Helen Grace. I feel that this could have been a part of the book about her sister or even book 1, but not a book of its own.

A great inro to our very-beloved kick-ass heroine!

Short but flawless (in its creation, staging and delivery). If you are a huge Grace fan (and a Gen-x'er) I DARE you not to jump around your house with both hands in the air in a winning pugilist pose singing the Rocky theme at the top of your lungs!

Nice insights in Helen Grace's life

It's a pity you have to pay still 1 credit for such a short story. However the story itself is nice, you really get more insights in the history and personality of Helen Grace.
