Nell, an FBI agent, comes home to deal with her father's recent death. She gets herself pulled into (not in an official capacity) a murder investigation. Nell quickly finds out that her father was involved but doesn't know quite how. I admit I had the same feelings as her but I really hoped that her father wasn't a murderer. I can't believe the unfolding of the corruption in this novel.
I admire Nell's dedication to her work and she's tough as nails!
