Wrong as Rain

Rose City Thriller #2

by Jools Sinclair, Emily Jordan

There’s something wrong going on in the Rose City. Something wrong as rain.

Reporter Kate Craig is looking into the suicide of a young rape victim. But as she investigates what really happened to freshman Jessica Kaplan, she uncovers more than she ever bargained for.

Meanwhile, Detective Clay Moore and his partner are on the hunt for a missing star quarterback, who has mysteriously disappeared in the middle of his team’s greatest season. But a shocking revelation sends the case into sudden death.

As a hard rain begins to fall, the downpour threatens to expose the darkest secrets of the Rose City and wash away any chance at happiness for Kate and Clay.

A hard-boiled and heart-pounding unforgettable noir thriller ripped from today’s headlines, Wrong as Rain is the second book in the Rose City Thriller series.

Please note: If this book were a movie it would be rated R for language, sex, and violence.

Jools Sinclair is an author with a real talent and having read 17 books prior to this one and none scoring less than 4.5 out of 5 I went into this one with high hopes and am pleased to say that once again I have not been let down. This book sees a suicide of a young rape victim dealt investigated and so is a book that is dealing with a challenging subject matter but I felt this is dealt with really well and allows for the reader to still have a book that delivers on the promises that come with the Jools Sinclair name.

I liked the 44 series a lot, but I didn’t like this book. The story was predictable, and I figured out what was going on right away. Too many statistics and such made it very boring. The conflict between Kate and her boyfriend was dull. I pretty much skimmed to the end after reading about half of it. The information was good, and something probably everyone leaving home should know, but it’s not what I want to read in a novel I picked up for leisure.

Powerful

This was a powerful and engaging crime mystery based on a difficult topic. I truly enjoy everything Jools writes and recommend all her books.

A Therapeutic Thriller

"Wrong as Rain" addressed a very sensitive topic in a masterful way. Mature readers of the 44 series will be thrilled to learn more about Kate Craig, and will appreciate the glimpses into Abby's life after 44. I'm anxiously awaiting the next Rose City Thriller.

A Thriller with a twist!!

Having read many of Jools' books, this was a departure from her normal writing style into a fiery subject - and one that affects many of today's youth and adults alike.

While fictional, it hits close to home for many people, predominantly young college students, athletes and tackles a subject that's getting all too common.

What does Kate Craig - a feisty reporter at the Portland Free Press, Joey Richardson - a young budding Quarterback, Jessica Kaplan - a dead young girl and Clay Moore - a relentless Detective have that connects them together? Follow Kate and Clay on their separate paths to finding justice and seeking the killer. Will Jessica's killer be found? Read along in this psychological thriller and follow the characters through a roller coaster of a ride. It'll leave you wanting more!

Wrong as Rain was AWESOME

I couldn't put it down. I was so happy to see that Jools Sinclair had put out another book. I so loved The 44 series and this story picked up with the sister. I couldn't have been happier. Kate needed her story told. And so far what a story. Fast paced kept me guessing. I didn't agree with how the so called"villains" in this story handled things but it wasn't my story to tell. I loved the book, I couldn't put it down. Jools Sinclair keep them coming please.!!!!
