L.A. Deputy District
Attorney Rachel Knight walks up to a fire at a sleazy hotel near her office and
discovers her co-worker, Jake, has been found dead at the scene with a male
teenager. The police think it’s a cut and dried murder/suicide, but Rachel just
can’t believe it. So, even though she’s been warned off the case, she enlists a
friend in the police department to help her uncover what really happened. And
that’s where things get interesting.
Rachel is tenacious and
kinda bull-headed, but it makes her good at what she does. And finding out what
happened to Jake is priority one when everyone is saying he murdered a teenage
male prostitute and then killed himself. Even though she knows very little
about Jake’s personal life, they worked 100s of hours together and she’s sure
she’s not wrong about the kind of person he was. The more she digs the worse it
looks for Jake, but Rachel needs to see this thing through until the end.
Fast-paced and intriguing,
who knew I’d really enjoy a story about a lawyer? I guess because this is less
about lawyer-y stuff and more about investigating a crime. It’s twisty and
turny and the characters are great. I’d read more stories involving Rachel
Knight.
