Reviews
The story itself moves along at a brisk pace, without a lot of lulls in the drama. The twists and turns throughout added to the already suspenseful narrative, and the result is a gripping and thought provoking police procedural.
If you are looking for a compelling crime drama, with many shades of grey, you should definitely check this out."
Owen Robinson, Amazon Reviewer
"Brenham’s fast-paced police drama juggles a number of narrative lines and disparate characters . . . The entire cast of characters—good and evil—is well-constructed and realistic, while the action-packed ending grows organically out of their varied personalities. So too does the emotional ending, which chooses intelligence over sentimentality. A gripping, fast-moving and emotionally charged drama centered on well-drawn characters with genuine motives."
Kirkus Reviews
“This is a very dark tale and not for the faint of heart...The most impressive thing for me was how well drawn the characters were...this book was certainly a thrill ride, but it was also a very touching story...once the book has been read, you will find yourself thinking about it and all the various feelings it evoked...All in all, the author did a fantastic job with this one...”
