About this listen

Poking a sleeping bear with a sharp stick is foolish. Marty Edwards is about to be very foolish.

Investigative reporter Marty Edwards has found her niche: cold cases. She loves poring over old notes, hunting down long-forgotten witnesses, and digging down through the layers of an unsolved murder case. But this time, Marty is digging where someone obviously doesn't want her. And that someone might also include the Brownsville Police Department. Why else would they assign Detective Kristen Bailey to baby-sit her?

Barely surviving two attempts on her life, Marty abandons Brownsville and the case. Danger follows her as the case turns red-hot. With Detective Bailey along for protection, they race along the Gulf Coast, neither knowing who, if anyone, they can trust. The hardest part is learning to trust each other before it's too late for their hearts - and their lives.

A few twists and turns along the way, a few clever little nuanced moments that work really well. Gerri writes these stories so well that I rarely have any negative thoughts about them

Another good story from GH and the narrator does a good job. I often find this narrator doesn't quite get the second MC right (not feminine enough), but these two are spot on.The narrator 'does' the narrator bit really well though, a voice that is easy to listen to !

Good Story....
