When you have no one, it’s hard to know who to trust.Kat’s quiet life as a librarian is shattered when she stumbles over a body in her backyard. As a former foster kid with no family and a long history of being overlooked, she’s used to being invisible. But now, someone has noticed her—and they want her dead.
With the help of her neighbor Jim, an FBI agent with a knack for showing up just in time, Kat is pulled into a high-stakes investigation that exposes a dangerous human trafficking ring targeting foster kids. As she digs deeper, she realizes this isn’t just about the murder in her backyard. It’s about her past—a past she’s tried to forget, but that someone refuses to let her escape.
Every secret she uncovers pulls her closer to the truth—and closer to a killer willing to do whatever it takes to silence her. With her life on the line, Kat must decide if she’s ready to risk everything for a shot at justice.
If she trusts the wrong person, she might not live to regret it.
Fans of fast-paced romantic suspense, twisty psychological thrillers, and edge-of-your-seat crime fiction will devour this gripping first book in the Kat Chronicles series.
A wonderful, quirky story that I couldn't put down! The main characters all have some oddball eccentricities (even the FBI people!), some way more than the others. The plot turns this way and that. The heroine doesn't know who she can trust -- or not -- next. All done in a lighthearted way, with a happy ending.
