TV anchor, Maddie Caldecott, has a secret so deeply buried within that she doesn’t remember it. But the man called Absalom knows her secret, and his threats to exact his revenge are becoming more and more intrusive. As an investigative reporter, Maddie can dig out the truth of any story, but she can’t unearth the secret she’s blocked until it’s too late.
Police Detective, Brody Messner, is at his wits end. How can he protect Maddie if she resists his every suggestion? His need to protect her has become personal. From Orlando to Zürich, he follows her, trying to stay one step ahead of her assailant—all of his notes to her, and the song.
Sherri Stewart never fails to deliver a book you don't want to put down. Secrets Dark and Deep is such a book. Talk about a plot twist. I didn't see "who did it" coming in the end. Well done. Looking forward to the next.
Stewart handled the hard subject matter of rape with grace and realism. Maddie's fears were real. And the story takes the reader on a true to life journey that echoes the thoughts and actions of rape victims everywhere. Although I thought the love interest with officer Brody grew to quickly his investigation skills added so much to bringing the suspense element to a satisfying conclusion.
More than a romantic suspense, I enjoyed the subplots and twists. This does have some sensitive topics but the author handled them with grace and sensitivity.
