Description

The first book in a new small-town mystery series by New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and USA Today bestselling author Denise Grover Swank.

James “Skeeter” Malcolm’s story’s not over yet. 

Disgraced, ex-detective Harper Adams is perfectly content wallowing at rock bottom. She’s lost her job, house, and reputation, and it only gets worse when she’s forced to move back home to Jackson Creek, Arkansas, the one place she swore she’d never return. 
 
But everything changes when she gets a chilling phone call. A childhood friend’s daughter is missing…and it’s eerily reminiscent of Harper’s sister’s kidnapping and murder two decades ago. 
 
Not her business. 
 
Except with the police fumbling the case at every turn, Harper realizes she might be the only one who can save the girl.  
 
And she might need the help of a former crime boss to do it.

    Denise does it again with her well written mystery! We meet Harper who is a disgraced ex-detective. She ends up in our old friend from The Rose Gardner series James Malcolms bar. The story keeps you wanting more and guessing who you can trust. Definitely worth the read!

  • Wow!

    James is back! I’m so excited! He’s a character from the Rose Gardner series, you must read them all as i have done. Now we have Harper in this book and she is an amazing person. Harper has a few things she needs to get under control. Although it wasn’t intended James and Harper team up and made for an interesting read. I love this new series so far!

    Another fantastic read and a great start to a new series by Denise Grover Swank. Harper is another strong female but is at rock bottom, having to leave a career she loved and moving back to her hometown that holds many painful memories. She finds herself using her detective skills to solve a kidnapping that is similar to her sister’s over twenty years ago. She finds herself reluctantly needing to pair up with a former criminal boss, James (Skeeter) Malcolm. There are many twists and turns and just as soon as you KNOW you have it figured out, something else happens. I look forward to many more books and to see how Harper can grow, change and find her self worth.
