Hanging By A Thread: The Justix Files Book 1
Not yet published
Expected 2 Jun 26A murder. A rockstar. An obsession.
LA’s trashiest crime app, WeHo Beat, blasted the image across my phone—two patrol cars, an ambulance, flashing lights behind high-end iron gates. The breathless voiceover hit a familiar
Death in a Celebrity Home in the Birds.
Hell. My first day, and a high-profile death lands in my jurisdiction.
When I arrive, I find a body hanging by a silk rope from international rockstar Rik Drake’s balcony. And Rik—the only person in the house—can’t remember a thing about the night before.
But I know what that kind of rope is used for.
And it’s never for suspension.
Rik Drake knows it, too.
Whether that makes him a murderer… or the victim of a frame is the question—one I have to answer soon.
Because there’s something else Rik Drake knows about me. Something that puts my new gold shield at risk.
It would help if he stopped flirting with me.
And it would help if I didn’t care.
Because in the LAPD, breaking the rules destroys careers.

From start to finish, this book just sucks you right in and you just hope you remembered to click your seatbelt before leaving the station! Experiencing all the different interactions between the characters was very well done and I literally could not put this book down! The author takes you on an emotional rollercoaster from start to finish and has left me hoping Book 2 is not far behind!
