Trail of Poison
Another page turner from Malcolm Richards. Poor Emily really does get herself into some diabolical situations,but with his usual skill Malcolm keeps you gripped to the the last page,and Emily rises again.
This series just gets better!
More than happy to recommend book three.
A murky thriller
Once again Emily finds herself mixed up in events that are much bigger than her, and as usual she makes a surprisingly good account of herself when faced with overwhelming odds. This time it's a dark conspiracy that just seems to get bigger and more wide ranging the more she tugs on the thread. Fans of Cruel Minds, the previous book in the series, will likely be as happy as me to see the return of a very fun character who hinders Emily almost as much as she helps. This is a great mystery series.
