Noah Marshall never dreamt that his world would fall apart the night that he got home from work to find his mom drunk at the kitchen table. That wasn't all that unusual these days, however, the gunshot that pulled him from his shower shattered his world. Apparently, his mother, the chief of police could no longer live with her demons. In the days following his mother's death Noah realizes that his mother's demons had something to do with her partner's death fourteen years ago. Noah has fond memories of Abe Wilkes and when he finds a duffel bag his mother had stashed with nearly $100k he finally was able to understand her drunken ramblings that last night. He takes the duffel bag full of money and heads to Arizona looking for Abe's daughter, Gracie. When he finds her they start to realize that there was more to Abe's death fourteen years ago and they work to clear his name. Will they be able to uncover the truth and who will be destroyed when the truth is finally uncovered?
When you read an ARC you run the risk of not reading the fully edited copy. I hope that was the case with Keep Her Safe because the author has Gracie feeding a stray dog grapes. Grapes are deadly for dogs and I hope somebody points that out before publication. Other than that minor irritation Keep Her Safe was a fast-paced mystery. Noah was about as strait-laced as a character gets and Gracie's life since her father's death was far from easy. They were good together and I really liked their chemistry. Their investigation leads them to discover that Gracie's aunt may have been a victim of human trafficking and Abe was looking for her when he was killed. I had my suspicions who was the bad guy in the book and I was right. I did get a little surprised at one of the things the bad guy revealed when caught. It made me sad. -- CLICK HERE FOR SPOILERS
Bottom Line - Keep Her Safe is a fast-paced thriller with just enough romance sprinkled in that you will be unable to put the book down!
