Sylvie Grayson delivers another thrilling romantic mystery that will keep you on the edge of your seat— a gripping story of suspense with characters that you’ll root for and a plot that pulls you in.
After years of taking courses and jumping through hoops to get licensed, Jake Murdoch is more than ready to open his private investigator’s office. Leah Bonnar, a family friend and childhood irritant who blames him for a past disaster in her life, steps in to volunteer as his assistant. Given he’s not making money yet, he needs her help to get things up and running. Yet as the cases start pouring in, she organizes the hell out of him. Jake is attracted to Leah, and grudgingly grateful for her help in equal measure. Despite their history, their relationship heats up.
But in the midst of one of his investigations, Jake steps on the toes of a couple of very determined con men and Leah is sitting right in the crosshairs of their revenge. Can Jake find the evidence he needs to stop the criminals, while protecting Leah from their efforts to bring his investigation to a halt?

A great read. Thoroughly enjoyed reading it. Good storyline. Captivating characters. Couldn’t put it down.
Rainer Murdoch survived the investigation into the murder of his friend and business partner with only minor charges and probation that included assisting the police in cases as needed. Now he has the opportunity to be released from probation and finally move on with his life after one last case. Unlike the cases he is usually assigned, this one involves a drug ring and their money trail. More danger, more death. Further complications arise when Sophia Bonner, “uncle” Toby’s daughter shows up next door and it looks like she may need protection from something or someone at a time when he can’t be there for her.
This is another great Sylvie Grayson crime mystery. Thrilling suspense and excellent plot development. I hope there is more about Rain Man and Sophia in future books.
