As a social worker, Alison Taylor has a passion for protecting children and seeing that justice is served on their behalf. But when she starts getting harassing phone calls and bizarre "gifts," it seems she may be the one in need of protection. When her tormentor's attentions take a violent turn, her brother Cole comes to her aid, along with his new partner, an ex-Navy SEAL, Detective Mitch Morgan. As her relentless stalker turns up the heat, Mitch takes a personal interest in the case. Protecting Alison has become more than just a job--because his own happiness now depends on keeping her safe.
Chock full of nail-biting suspense and heart-melting romance, Deadly Pursuit is Irene Hannon's storytelling at its very best. Fans old and new will not want to miss the next story in this series starring siblings fighting for justice.
I remember that I really enjoyed reading [b:Fatal Judgment: A Novel|8125734|Fatal Judgment (Guardians of Justice, #1)|Irene Hannon|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1441053397l/8125734._SY75_.jpg|12921400], the first book in the Guardians of Justice Series and was looking forward to this one. Overall this plot was a bit macabre for my taste, just too much. I was nervous and uncomfortable and completely creeped out. Yet I hear that a creep out factor is a good thing in suspense. Anyway, I wanted to stop, but I had to keep going to know what would happen in the end. It is interesting to me how I can watch television shows with similar situations, but reading them in a book going at the pace that I can find the time to dive in the logos is another matter.
[a:Irene Hannon|97710|Irene Hannon|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1316027272p2/97710.jpg] is masterful with a pen and writes a good and catching story. I was captivated from the very beginning. I love characters and I despised the ones that were meant to be despised, but at the same time (thanks to [a:Mary Connealy|58306|Mary Connealy|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1361308956p2/58306.jpg]) I also often find myself looking for redemption in the evil characters. While not my favorite genre, Irene definitely kept the pages turning and I will look for more from her in the future.
