The Killing Tide (Coastal Guardians Book #1)

by Dani Pettrey

Overview

When one Coast Guard officer is found dead and another goes missing, Coast Guard Investigative Service special agent Finn Walker faces his most dangerous crime yet. His only clues are what little evidence remains aboard the dead officer's boat, and the direction the clues point to will test Finn and the Guard to their limits.

When investigative reporter--and Finn's boss's sister--Gabby Rowley arrives, her unrelenting questions complicate an already volatile situation. Now that she's back, the tug on Finn's heart is strong, but with the risks she's taking for her next big story, he fears she might not live through it.

Thrown together by the heinous crime, Finn and Gabby can't ignore the sparks or judgments flying between them. But will they be able to see past their preconceptions long enough to track down an elusive killer, or will they become his next mark?

Finn Walker has had his own share of pain over the past few years. Still recovering from an injury, he thinks things might be settling down and getting back to normal when Gabby Rowley, an old flame, walks back in to his life. Investigative reporter Gabby is seeking refuge and safety from the men trying to kill her. When her brother demands she return to the family's hometown, she has no idea that she will come face-to-face with Finn. Now protecting her heart seems more important than anything else. All too quickly their lives become entwined again as Finn and Gabby work together with their Coast Guard friends to solve a mysterious murder. While they may not see eye to eye on everything, one thing they can agree on is the discussion they need to have once the case has been solved. VERDICT Pettrey ("Alaskan Courage" series) delivers another outstanding novel filled with romance, mystery, and suspense. Fans of DiAnn Mills, Lynette Eason, and Dee Henderson will be drawn to this book.—Shondra Brown, Wakarusa P.L., IN
