Review – Seeds of Evidence

Linda J. White in her new book, “Seeds of Evidence” published by Abingdon Press brings us into the lives of Kit McGovern and David O’Connor “on a windswept island where no murder has ever occured, someone has started killing”.

From the back cover:   Tiny seeds, a passion for justice, and a desire for truth…

From the back cover:  Shaken by an unwanted divorce, FBI Special Agent Kit McGovern retreats to her grandmother s Virginia island home for a little R & R. But her vacation comes to an unexpected end when the body of a young Latino boy is found on the beach.Kit teams up with D.C. cop David O Connor to investigate the murder with the smallest of clues tomato seeds and acorns found in the boy s pockets.

Using plant DNA evidence, Kit traces the young boy to a huge farm where more than a killer looms. With grit, determination, and a growing interest in David, Kit pursues her case and discovers that, to truly move forward in life, justice has to be tempered with mercy.

Get ready for an up all night thriller.  Kit McGovern needs a vacation but what she finds is a murder.  Now she has to team up with Washington, D.C. cop David O’Connor to find the murderer before he strikes again.  Let me say this right off, Linda White does not disappoint!  Ms. White knows how to ratchet up the tension so that your nerves are strung tight as you work with Kit and David to figure out who the murderer is and stop him.  “Seeds of Evidence” is filled with intrigue, deceit, mystery, and a deadly killer.  On top of everything Ms. White manages to weave a romance into this story that just captivates you.  She makes you care for all the characters and their journey.   This is also just plain fun and exciting as well.  Don’t start this book late at night because it will cost you sleep.  I look forward to more from this very talented author.
