ABOUT THE BOOK

$10,000,000 Is Missing.
Erin Larson is running out of options. In the wake of her father's death, she found a slim piece of paper--a deposit slip--with an unbelievable amount on it. Only the bank claims they have no record of the money, and trying to hire a lawyer has brought only intimidation and threats. Erin's last chance is Jared Neaton.
How Far Will One Lawyer Go to Find the Money?
When Jared wearied of the shady ethics of his big law firm and started his own, he never expected the wheels to fly off so quickly. One big loss has pushed him to the brink, and it's all he can do to scrape by.
And How Far Will Someone Go to Stop Him?
He's not sure if Erin's case is worth the risk, but if the money is real, all his problems could vanish. When digging deeper unleashes something far more dangerous than just threats, both Jared and Erin must decide the cost they're willing to pay to discover the truth.

My Thoughts on this Book:

This is a great suspense book. I did take me a  little bit to really grasp the story as it kind of went into too much detail at the beginning and some of the lawyer talk was a bit to grasp but please don't let that deter you from wanting to read this because once he got going I couldn't put the book down until the end! I think it's well worth the read if you like a story that keeps you on the edge of your seat.. Great debut book. I hope to see more from this author in the future!

I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review of this book. No other compensation was given.
