You can take the detective out of the investigation, but you can’t take the investigator out of the detective.A notorious gang puts a bounty on Detective Cady Matthews’s head after she takes down their leader, leaving her no choice but to hide until she can testify at trial. But her temporary home across the country on a remote North Carolina island isn’t as peaceful as she initially thinks. … thinks.
Living under the new identity of Cassidy Livingston, she struggles to keep her investigative skills tucked away, especially after a body washes ashore. When local police bungle the murder investigation, she can’t resist stepping in. But Cassidy is supposed to be keeping a low profile. One wrong move could lead to both her discovery and her demise.
Can she bring justice to the island . . . or will the hidden currents surrounding her pull her under for good?

Loved this book. Mystery, crime, a little bit of romance. What more could you ask for?
The ending leaves you wanting the sequels. It is a cliff hanger.
Christy seldom disappoints. I liked this book alot
Christy Baritt’s books are always entertaining, her characters are real and the story line excellent. I thoroughly enjoyed this one.
Unexpected twists and turns I love a good, keep me guessing, mystery, and this did not disappoint. Well written great reading.
Great book, but you have to get the sequels to find out what happens. Definitely not a stand alone book. So I recommend it only if you can the sequels otherwise you are left hanging.
I enjoy Christy Barritt’s writing immensely & am looking forward to reading more of her books!
The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars is because it isn’t a stand alone book. The main mystery is solved, but it doesn’t wrap up the entire scenario.
Fast-paced enough to keep me turning pages! The police work part is a little “unbelievable”, but the story is entertaining & I’m willing to look for more deals on the rest of the author’s series.
Wile somewhat predictable, the character development is very good. I look forward to continuing the story in the next book.
Easy read. Didn’t expect ending.
Not my kind of book. Too much “gang descriptions ” for me.
Loved it! Several mysteries woven into the story line. Lots of action!
I thought this book was very well written. It kept me interested all the way through and wanting to read more by this author.
Enjoyed the characters and admired their bravery and honor. Appreciated the lack of profanity and steamy scenes.
Read this entire series in three days. Could not put it down. Will be buying more from this author
I could not stop until I read the series.
There are 5 books to this series so far and I loved every one of them. Waiting for number 6 to come out.
I truly enjoyed this series
A fun read. It really kept me interested.
