The Eisenger Element

by Sherry Fowler Chancellor

She thought she was ready for the hard cases, but that was before she met him… Emilia Hammond recently earned her gold shield as a detective with the New Orleans police department and is working on her first assignment, eager to prove herself capable of handling her promotion. After a series of attacks on prostitutes in the French Quarter, she finds herself going undercover to investigate. In the process, she’s called to the scene of a murder at an attorney’s office. She has a good lead, a solid case, until her prime suspect turns the tables on her. He’s trying to clear his innocent brother, and now he’s a murder suspect himself… Attorney Lincoln Eisenger is from a prominent New Orleans Garden District family. His brother Myles is in Angola Prison for a murder he didn’t commit, and Linc is determined to clear his brother’s name and bring him home. But when his law partner is killed, Linc becomes the prime suspect. Now he has to clear himself as well as his brother, all the while trying to ignore the sparks igniting between him and the spunky female detective he thought was a prostitute.

[Laurie Ryan · Rating 4 out of 5]

All I had to read was New Orleans and I was in. This city fascinates me and the author depicted it as if she knows it well. The plot felt complex and didn't disappoint. As well, the feisty Emelia was fun to follow through the process.
