Summary

Quitting her job as a high school science teacher to join the Seattle Police Department was an easy decision for Tracy Crosswhite. Years earlier, what should have been one of the happiest days of her life instead became her worst nightmare when her younger sister, Sarah, disappeared. After the murder trial, while her family disintegrated, Tracy turned her heartbreak and her lingering questions into a passion for justice.

But people don't just become world-class detectives. If Tracy wants to uncover the truth about what happened to her sister, first she must be forged in the fires of the Police Academy, where not everyone wants her to succeed.

Bite sized goodness

Just long enough to enjoy, and Nolasco getting his comeuppance was a welcome read/listen. It's a shame it happened at a time when sexual harassment/assault was part of a woman's daily life, and Jen would have a long wait for justice without Tracey 😎

You have to read this before reading my sister's grave

Any additional comments?

I know this is only a short story but it's a must read before reading the next in the series. I started to read my sister's grave but didn't understand are follow the story so I looked to see if there was another book before my sister's grave and found this, I did not want to buy it because it was so short but I was so glad I did, it explains a lot for the next book, plus it's an excellent story I may be tempted to get some more short stories

Don't mess with women you don't know

Brilliantly funny 1.2 hours of sheer entertainment and enjoyment. Giving the history of Tracy's enrolment in the police it gives lots of foresight in this series and if possible should be read first before My Sisters Grave. Along with the other books of Roberts I've read this is well deserving of its 5* rating
