Review – Burning Proof

From the Back Cover:  After months of investigating the brutal homicide of a young girl, Detective Abby Hart finally has the evidence she needs. But when the arrest goes terribly wrong, Abby begins to doubt her future as a police officer. As she wrestles with conflicting emotions, old questions about the fire that took her parents’ lives come back to haunt her.

“There is proof.” PI Luke Murphy can’t stop thinking about what Abby’s former partner, Asa Foster, mumbled just before he died. When he uncovers a clue to the murder of Abby’s parents and his uncle, he’s reluctant to tell Abby, despite his growing feelings for the beautiful detective.

A decade-old abduction case brings Luke and Abby together, but will his secret tear them apart?

I just want to point out that Ms. Cantore with this series, Cold Case Justice, just keeps getting better and let me add that she started out terrific. Abby had an arrest go wrong to the point where she is questioning whether she will continue as a police officer. Luke is the one who assures her that “there is proof”. Then there is information that Luke has that he doesn’t want to share with Abby.  “Burning Proof” is how you define exciting! If anyone can write these kind of stories with authenticity and sheer excitement Ms. Cantore most certainly can.  “Burning Proof” is a thriller with all kinds of excitement and danger. I am sure you will not see what is going to happen until they are unfolding before you.  Janice Cantore knows how to weave a captivating story with Abby and Luke who are wonderful characters that are alive and we get emotionally involved with the,.  I enjoyed reading this book and look forward to the next book in this exciting series.
