Or that it lands her in the middle of another one of Detective Tom Parker&#8217;s investigations. Determined to prove her neighbor&#8217;s innocence, Kate stumbles into a pit of intrigue that is far deeper than a two-bit counterfeit operation&#8211;and strikes too close to home for comfort. As family secrets come to light, her world&#8211;and her budding romance with Tom&#8211;begin to crumble. To Kate, it&#8217;s clear that she won&#8217;t be safe until she uncovers all of Port Aster&#8217;s secrets. But is it too late for her and Tom?<\/p>\n<p>Award-winning author Sandra Orchard draws readers into a world of rogues, red herrings, and romance as she unfolds the continuing story of amateur sleuth Kate Adams.<\/p>\n<p>==================<br \/>\nWhen I realized that this was book 2 in a series, I was a little nervous that I&#8217;d be lost from the beginning. It was a major relief when that didn&#8217;t happen. While it&#8217;s the second book, plenty of backstory is offered that it can easily work as a stand alone book. The story is well paced, the characters are well developed and the story keeps you reading. I was really enjoying the book right until I hit the end&#8230;well, except it wasn&#8217;t an end. It was a cliffhanger that means if I want to learn what happened, I have to buy the next book. I really dislike endings like that. I&#8217;d much prefer to buy another book in a series because I want to instead of feeling like I have to so that the previous book can have its ending. So, if you pick up this book, be warned that&#8217;s what&#8217;s going to happen. Other than that, it was a really good read.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/s227.photobucket.com\/albums\/dd163\/kroets\/?action=view&amp;current=Name2.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Photobucket\" border=\"0\" src=\"http:\/\/i227.photobucket.com\/albums\/dd163\/kroets\/Name2.jpg\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><i>I received a copy of this book for the purpose of this review.
