Publisher's summary

Poking a sleeping bear with a sharp stick is foolish. Marty Edwards is about to be very foolish.

Investigative reporter Marty Edwards has found her niche: cold cases. She loves poring over old notes, hunting down long-forgotten witnesses, and digging down through the layers of an unsolved murder case. But this time, Marty is digging where someone obviously doesn't want her. And that someone might also include the Brownsville Police Department. Why else would they assign Detective Kristen Bailey to baby-sit her?

Barely surviving two attempts on her life, Marty abandons Brownsville and the case. Danger follows her as the case turns red-hot. With Detective Bailey along for protection, they race along the Gulf Coast, neither knowing who, if anyone, they can trust. The hardest part is learning to trust each other before it's too late for their hearts - and their lives.

Great Story!!

Great story & of course the characters were extremely well played! The case was thrilling and grabbed you as it progressed. Not gonna lie I thought I had the Scorpion figured out. Twists and transitions were well played & nicely detailed. Gerri never disappoints!

Mystery and Intrigue

Great story with plenty of twists and turns. Two very different, yet strong women join forces to solve a years old cold case, and discover themselves in the process. Loved it!

Nice, easy read!

I like a book that doesn’t get too boogers down with a million characters (which I then stress about remembering who’s who and make lists!) the romance was well balanced with the mystery aspect. The characters were fleshed out just enough, without a lot of needless background filler!
Add Abby Craden to the equation and it’s a winner!

Good book!

Interesting plot and likeable characters. Gerri Hill always finds a way to create fantastic stories. And of course, the narrator did an excellent job bringing the characters and emotions alive. Highly recommended!

Realistic crime and suspense with a little romance!

Great story line this could be a series of undercover crime fighting and investigation! I’ve watched many movies and TV shows just like this but not with the lesbian scenes!
