Shadow Informant — Edita A. Petrick

Murder and romance don't really go together but in this case, it works!

What did I like? I totally fell in love with Carly, she is the sort of person that I wanted to be when I grew up. A Cop and well maybe not the single mom detail because I did get that part in my life also, but I sure wanted to be a COP! I loved the grit that Carly has and when she wakes up to the future, what a gal she becomes!

What will you like? A twist and turn storyline, action, murder, romance, and huge craters where buildings should be still standing. Being a homicide detective in the first place is a tough job and for sure it is thankless! Carly has that, and she has a jerk for an ex-husband. When you throw in a little romance that is so different than she had ever known, well then you have an amazing storyline. Can't wait to get to book two. I received this from the author for an honest review with no other compensation.


A serial killer who leaves a road-map on his victims should be easy to track down…
When Carly is roused in the middle of the night to come to work she knows she'll be heading for a murder scene. After all, she's a homicide detective, it's her job, and she's prepared for everything. Until she arrives in a suburban commuter parking lot where a young lawyer is lying on the ground, a hole in his chest, his organs vaporized, and a topographic map of a metropolitan grid tattooed on his face. A week later victim number two -- same first name, same fist-sized hole in his chest, his organs vaporized and wearing another topographic map on his face -- points to something more sinister that could lead to a nearby army facility.
