Book synopsis
Bioethicist Jessica Croft, estranged daughter of a federal judge, has avoided the players, power, and passions of Washington, DC. But when her sister’s suspicious death is classified as natural, Jessie resolves to expose the murderer. Pursuing elite suspects on both sides of the stem-cell-research debate leads her to security consultant Michael Gillette, who knows more about her sister than he’ll admit.
Michael has a vested interest in Jessie’s plight. Her sister died on his watch—while he wasn’t watching. His plan to find her murderer becomes complicated when Jessie’s father hires him to protect Jessie, and his interest turns from professional to romantic.
Jessie and Michael must unravel a mystery rife with political agendas and deceit. When confidential papers reveal a fertility scandal surrounding the enigmatic Girl Three, the two realize the danger of exposing the truth. Who is Girl Three? And will the murderer kill again to keep a secret?
Shona's review: 4 of 5 stars
I really enjoyed this book, so much so that I whizzed through the first 60% of it in one sitting.
At three separate points in the book I KNEW what was going to happen, I KNEW who was behind it all and each time I was proven wrong. This really is a thriller that keeps you guessing.
March has gotten Jessie and Michael's relationship just right. They were obviously attracted to each other and they almost take it to the next step, but they are both still reeling from Sam's death and I think if they had taken their relationship to the next step straight away it would have felt wrong.
Jessie is an intelligent character, though sometimes I struggled to understand her actions. Though you could argue that she was mourning for her sister and as a result she wasn't thinking rationally.
I look forward to reading more by Tracy March.
