Description:
1st in the Del Shannon series, investigator, Tucson AZ

Mystery Lovers Review:
The inaugural volume of a powerfully promising projected series introducing Del Shannon, an undercover FBI agent who is charged with investigating and infiltrating a dangerous religious cult in rural Kentucky. When she discovers that her father owns a parcel of land in the town in question, the investigation becomes personal. Moreover, Del suspects that there may be a connection between the cult and her AWOL mother, so she has a compelling incentive to complete her mission. As a reader, I was absorbed in James’ narrative and hope to see additional series installments very soon. [LM]
