This was a great murder mystery with a solid cast of characters that are so real and raw and I felt every emotion with them. 

Aria is a great woman working for the homeless and accidentally stumbles upon the person who just killed a volunteer for her organization, Emerson. Then she and her loved ones are constantly threatened. She decides she needs to figure out why Emerson was a target and quick...With a great friend (love interest too) Jax and police officer Errol by her side.

Aria stressed me out (in a good way!) but she was so tenacious that I couldn't help but cheer her on. I liked to see the past of Emerson throughout the read and the struggles he went through during service in Nam and the demons of drug/alcohol abuse as a result because it really helped me feel sympathy for him.
