About this listen

What should have been a routine afternoon on the witness stand for forensic handwriting expert Claudia Rose turns into a shocking assault that leaves her bruised and bloodied. Following on the heels of a series of other traumatic events, the attack sends Claudia to the brink of a breakdown. Her fiancé, LAPD Homicide Detective Joel Jovanic, learns of the attack while leading a homicide investigation into a mailbox bomb.

An innocent housekeeper in the tony Venice neighborhood is dead, and the homeowner is the CEO of a major pesticide-producing corporation that has been targeted in the past. When a notebook found in a geocache near the crime scene leads to the protest group People for Safe Food, Jovanic needs Claudia to identify the handwriting of a suspected eco-terrorist.

Though she may have recovered physically from the assault weeks later, Claudia’s fears continue to plague her. Desperate to get away, she accepts an invitation to lecture in the UK, but her trip turns into a nightmare when she runs afoul of both the FBI and New Scotland Yard. Jovanic’s homicide case has followed her to London where she finds herself unexpectedly allied with the chief suspect.

Sheila Lowe's protagonist, a handwriting expert, stars again in this story which is set both in the USA and London. The cast of characters includes some amusingly drawn individuals as well, of course, as villains. The backdrop is the use of poisonous pesticides. A great story, which shows the deepening of the relationship between the central character and her detective boyfriend.

Another crime thriller with a fast paced story

Lots of intrigue and danger in this novel, the sixth of the series, and once again Claudia ends up right in the thick of things and taking risks that Joel is definitely not happy about. With a setting in the UK and a theme that covers geocaching, a hobby I’ve been enjoying for a decade, this felt very comfortable to me.
The story is well written and moves along at a good pace. Anna Crowe does an excellent job of narrating and brings the characters to life.

I was given a free copy of this audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this unbiased review.

Great thriller with geocaching too
