Description
Murder surrounds Raven Blakely. First her husband’s Cessna Skyhawk exploded in mid air. An accident? Not likely as the Skyhawk is known to be one of the safest planes ever built. Then three of her employees were found dead. The Medical Examiner ruled all three homicides.
Now the assassins are taking the battle to her front door. Big mistake. Raven Grace O’Malley Blakely was named for her ancestor, the infamous Irish chieftain and pirate. And with all the fire and fearlessness of her namesake, she goes on offensive even as the attacks on her escalate. And with a third-degree black belt in karate, an expert marksman with a handgun and a temper pure Irish, she’s way more than the bad guys bargained for.
The lively dialog and interesting side characters make this book a page turner. Raven’s best friend is the Norfolk Medical Examiner; Halsted Tully, who has collected and disposed of three rich husbands. Halstead is both outrageous and lovable. Fifty-two-year-old Brian Donahue, a wily Dublin-raised Irish captain and his 42-year old tree-hugger, vegetarian wife, Annie, provide comic relief as they backpack the George Washington National Forest in search of clues to the death of Richard Blakely. Ivor, a sexy 6’5†African-American ATF Special Agent, and Zen philosopher fills out the regular cast.
