After her rescue of nearly fifty kidnapped children made international headlines, Amara Alvarez gets what she's worked for: a transfer to San Antonio's Homicide Division. Reality sets in quickly, though, as her first case, the suspicious death of a teenager at a crowded local water park, brings chaos to her personal life.
As the investigation moves forward and she increases the pressure on the suspects, Amara finds herself under attack by cybercriminals. Her every move is being potentially watched online, and she's forced to resort to unconventional methods to find the killer. With few leads, she fights to keep her first murder investigation from ending up in the cold case files.
Tom Threadgill is back with another riveting page-turner featuring the detective who is willing to put everything on the line to see that justice is served and lives are protected.
Network of Deceit by Tom Threadgill is the second book in his Amara Alvarez series. This is the continuing story of Amara Alvarez, now a San Antonio Homicide detective. Her first case is the suspicious death of a teenager at a local water park. But things are not what they seem. I haven’t read the first book, but this one can be read as a stand-alone. There are references to Amara’s first case but it doesn’t have to be read before this one. I liked the camaraderie between Amara and Starsky. The suspense level kept you turning the pages to find out how Amara was going to figure everything out. The twist at the end was very unexpected!
I received this book from the publisher for my honest review.
