Saturday, September 11, 2021



I actually read the 9th book in this series first (see my review here). It was amazingly good--so I decided to read the 1st in the series.

Strange things keep happening to Sabre. Unexplainable things. She is a Juvenile Court Attorney who has a case that is almost heartbreaking. And in the back of her mind--why did her beloved brother disappear 5 years ago?

The past and the future come together in unexpected ways as Sabre tries to figure out whether the children should be returned to their father.

Lots of twists and turns--but how does it end--read this book to find out!

About the Book: (from Amazon)

For Sabre Orin Brown, life is good; she has it all...or would have, if only she could solve the mysterious disappearance of her brother. The search for her brother and her career as a Juvenile Court Attorney collide when she defends a nine-year-old whose father will go to any length to obtain custody.

Sabre finds herself immersed in a case with too many unanswered questions. Her quest for the truth takes her coast to coast and five years into the past. Confronted with mysterious clues and strange occurrences, Sabre is threatened by someone wanting to make her suffer the unbearable anguish of losing everything--including her life.

As Sabre's passion to find the answers intensifies, she discovers a twisted history of desperation, deceit, and revenge. And she discovers how obscure and treacherous the truth can be.
