This book takes place a little while after the first. Jessie Tucker is back at work at the Tribune newspaper and is looking for her next big story. Jessie decides to take on the story of Maura Walsh's death. Jessie is as dogged as ever in this story. Jessie isn't afraid to get herself into trouble to get the story. Jessie puts herself in danger on more than one occasion in this book in order to get the truth. I like that Jessie will do anything for the truth. I was also proud of her for getting the full story before publishing. Some reporters don't have a conscience but Jessie does.
The story itself is full of twists and turns that kept me gripped to the end. I flew through this book. It's well written and very easy to read. I just kept turning page after page. I really struggled to put it down. Dana does an excellent job of reeling you in, making you care about the characters and even making you doubt everyone. This is a gripping read that will leave you wanting more from this daring crime reporter.
