WHAT REVIEWERS HAD TO SAY: ""The author does an incredible job of immediately balancing the chilling suspense of the main narrative with the humor and charm of the main cast of characters. The pacing of the novel's main mystery perfectly draws the reader in, slowly unraveling a tangled web of corruption and power as shocking suspects are revealed throughout the investigation. However, it is the strong characters of this novel that really are the backbone and selling point of the whole narrative."" Anthony Avina, reviewer ""Mystery & Crime lovers, I suggest you don't miss this one. I got hooked within the first few pages. There are more twists and turns than in a corkscrew right to the end."" JC Ryan, author of the best-selling Rex Dalton thriller series. ""In addition to the fine character portrayal of Mackenzie, her partner, Kobe Jameson, a Jamaican man, is equally well painted, and the interaction of the two detectives makes for an excellent combination in exploring murder and making the story humorous. This is a fine initial volume for a series that holds great promise."" Grady Harp, Amazon Hall of Fame Top 100 Reviewer
