Synopsis

Two years after the conclusion of The Blue Hour, Merci and her son are living with her father. She's also dating Mike McNally, a respected fellow officer. Merci and Mike are the golden couple on the force, and even if Merci doesn't passionately love him, there's a sort of comfortable inevitability to it all.But everything explodes when a young prostitute is found brutally murdered and Mike emerges as the primary suspect. The lead investigator on the case, Merci must do the unthinkable—expose and arrest her lover. Sifting through the clues with a growing sense of panic and outrage in her gut, Merci has to work hard to balance where the truth is leading her against where her heart is telling her to go. Meanwhile, an old unsolved case from the sixties is thrown on her desk—the murder of Patti Bailey, another prostitute with ties to the force—and the two cases conspire to turn Merci's world upside down.

My third T. Jeffereson Parker book and by far my favorite. Still wish there were 1/2 star ratings. This book, in my estimation, was very close to five stars especially since I gave four stars to the other two. Had to recall those books I did give five stars to in order to back off down to four.

Goodreads review by Terri on October 08, 2019

The murder of two separate prostitutes years apart should not be connected, but as Merci investigates the cold case she has been given, she finds links not only to the cases but to fellow cop and man she is dating, Mike McNally. Doing her job has caused her to hurt a man she cares about. Secrets unr......more

Goodreads review by Maddy on June 25, 2014
