Publisher's summary

New York Times bestselling author Robert Dugoni's acclaimed series continues as Tracy Crosswhite is thrown headlong into the path of a killer conspiracy.

While investigating the hit-and-run death of a young boy, Seattle homicide detective Tracy Crosswhite makes a startling discovery: the suspect is an active-duty serviceman at a local naval base. After a key piece of case evidence goes missing, he is cleared of charges in a military court. But Tracy knows she can't turn her back on this kind of injustice.

When she uncovers the driver's ties to a rash of recent heroin overdoses in the city, she realizes that this isn't just a case of the military protecting its own. It runs much deeper than that, and the accused wasn't acting alone. For Tracy, it's all hitting very close to home.

As Tracy moves closer to uncovering the truth behind this insidious conspiracy, she's putting herself in harm's way. And the only people she can rely on to make it out alive might be those she can no longer trust.

Good not great

Someone needed to do a better job of directing the narration. Weird inappropriate accents , a plot that was obvious and a twist you could see coming from miles away.
It’s a decent way to kill some time but not a great book.

Pretty good

Pretty good, but not Dugoni's best in this series. As always, the narration is spot on,

Series continues to be worth a read

I enjoyed following the growth of lead character Tracy. The books are well written. Believable characters, story and action. If you've read the other books you'll know what to expect. If you haven't the book will stand alone but is better if read in order.

Love this series!

You will enjoy this entire series. Make sure you start with the first book in the Tracy Crosswhite series. The narrator is really good.

my favorite series

Narration was clear and concise. Love the Tracy Crosswhite books. This book didn't let me down and kept me in suspense like the whole series.

Love this series!

If you like the main characters of this series you’ll love this book! The characters and story are believable.

They Keep Getting Better

I thought Book Four was very good, but this one is even better. I enjoyed the military court side of this book. It was nice seeing another court style for a change. I liked seeing Tracy and Dan’s relationship grow stronger and the frustrations of life passing by with Tracy’s growing yearning for a child, as well as a new budding romance for Del. I also enjoyed getting to learn and see Battles in action. Great to have strong female characters that don’t crumble when things get tough! Excellent listen, finished in a day! Great mystery with a message of the drug problems of society.

Good story

I enjoyed the story although I though I had figured it out early ( i was wrong ) my only complaint was that the reader voice seemed computerized and stilted at times. An enjoyable listen. It was my first kindle audio book. Had to do so because my library card temp expired.
