ABOUT THE BOOK

Texas Ranger Brody Calhoun is with his parents in west Texas when an unexpected attack injures the brother of Rebecca Morgan, Brody's high school sweetheart. The local sheriff, a good friend, asks for Brody's help. At first, it seems like an open-and-shut case. However, as Brody digs deeper, he realizes the attack may be related to an organized crime trial Rebecca will be overseeing. With Rebecca's help, he compiles evidence which involves cattle rustlers, bribery, and dirty payoffs that shatter the entire community and put Rebecca directly in the line of fire.

My thoughts:  I have to say that this is one of my favorite books so far!  I loved this book!  I just couldn't quit reading it.  I do have to say that I really hadn't even figured out the "who done it" part of the book when it came around.  There is much action and adventure going on in this book, I have to say you'll want to keep reading as much as I did!  I now want to go forward and find more books to read in this series!!
