Vow of Justice by Lynette Eason

FBI Special Agent Lincoln St. John is living his own personal nightmare. When the woman he loves, Allison Radcliffe, is killed, he devotes his life to tracking down the killers and making them pay for their crimes. He expected it to be a challenge. What he never expected was to find Allison very much alive shortly after her "murder." As his anger and hurt mix with relief, Linc isn't sure how he's supposed to feel. One thing he does know for sure: he and Allison will have to work together to stop a killer before she dies a second time--this time for good.

Another great book by Ms. Eason.   This is the fourth book in the Vow of Justice series.  It can be read alone.  The first three books are about the other St. John siblings and also great books. 

When Linc finds out that Allison is still alive he doesn't know who to be mad at.  Allison or their supervisor for leading him to believe she's dead.  As the story progresses, there are several attempts made on Linc's life.  He has to find out who wants him dead as well as who caused the explosion on the boat that nearly killed them when the book started.  This is a great mystery all the way and I highly recommend this book.

The Killing Tide by Dani Pettrey

When one Coast Guard officer is found dead and another goes missing, Coast Guard Investigative Service special agent Finn Walker faces his most dangerous crime yet. His only clues are what little evidence remains aboard the dead officer's boat, and the direction the clues point to will test Finn and the Guard to their limits.

When investigative reporter--and Finn's boss's sister--Gabby Rowley arrives, her unrelenting questions complicate an already volatile situation. Now that she's back, the tug on Finn's heart is strong, but with the risks she's taking for her next big story, he fears she might not live through it.

Thrown together by the heinous crime, Finn and Gabby can't ignore the sparks or judgments flying between them. But will they be able to see past their preconceptions long enough to track down an elusive killer, or will they become his next mark?

Ms. Pettrey did it again.  A great suspense all the way.  Gabby is hiding from a drug cartel that has put a hit out on her.  The only problem is that she doesn't know how to stay hidden.  She is an investigative reporter who just can't seem to realize she's really in danger.  To top if off she is in the care of Finn.  She stayed at his guest house previously and fell in love with him.  So being back is difficult for her.  While there Finn's team is trying to determine who killed a couple of their team mates.

I highly recommend this book.  I am anxiously awaiting the next book in the series.

State of Lies by Siri Mitchell

Months after her husband, Sean, is killed by a hit-and-run driver, physicist Georgie Brennan discovers he lied to her about where he had been going that day. A cryptic notebook, a missing computer, and strange noises under her house soon have her questioning everything she thought she knew.
With her job hanging by a thread, her son struggling to cope with his father’s death, and her four-star general father up for confirmation as the next Secretary of Defense, Georgie quickly finds herself tangled in a political intrigue that has no clear agenda and dozens of likely villains. Only one thing is clear: someone wants her dead too.
The more she digs for the truth, the fewer people she can trust.
Not her friends.
Not her parents.
Maybe not even herself.

This was an intriguing book.  There were twists and turns just about every page.   Georgie and her son are running for their lives.  She doesn't know who she can trust. She's beginning to see that her entire life has been a lie.   The only things that was a little boring was the explanation of her work. I wouldn't describe this as  Christian book.  But it was clean and there was no foul language.  I would recommend this book for those who like a good mystery.

Fire Storm by Nancy Mehl

When FBI profiler Kaely Quinn's mother is diagnosed with cancer, Kaely takes time off work to go to Dark Water, Nebraska, to help her brother care for their mother. Upon her arrival, she learns of a series of fires in the small town, attributed by the fire chief to misuse of space heaters in the frigid winter. But Kaely is skeptical, and a search for a pattern in the locations of the fires bolsters her suspicions.

After yet another blaze devastates a local family, Kaely is certain a serial arsonist is on the loose. Calling upon her partner from St. Louis, Noah Hunter, and her brother's firefighter neighbor who backs Kaely's suspicions, Kaely and her team begin an investigation that swiftly leads them down a twisted path. When the truth is finally revealed, Kaely finds herself confronting a madman who is determined his last heinous act will be her death.

This is the second book in the Kealy Quinn series.  It's not necessary to read the first book in the series.  But it would be helpful as the characters backgrounds are explained more. 

Kaely is still trying to overcome what her father did years ago.  The only way she know how to do that is be a bull dog for justice no matter the cost.  In this book Kaely has taken a few days off from the FBI to visit her mother who has cancer.  While there she stumbles upon a serial arsonist. 

I recommend this book to every one who likes a great mystery.
