Special Agent Alex Lambert has been
transferred into the Black CAT unit, not because he wants to
be there, but it's his last chance to continue as an agent
after a bad investigation left his partner dead. Alex walks
into a morning briefing on a case that suddenly brings his
past case to the present. Will Alex have a chance to
finally capture the murderer he has been investigating for
several years?
Samantha Dalton runs a website devoted
to debunking swindlers who trick victims online with
schemes. She started her personal mission after a family
member was destroyed by such a scheme. Sam runs a blog on
her site and answers emails to anyone who asks for
information or an opinion. This brings her to Alex's
attention when an email is discovered on a murder victim’s
computer.
Sam and Alex meet when it appears that
one of her recent followers has been murdered. Sam is
shocked to find out that not only was he killed by the
perpetrator of this email scheme, but that it is a pattern.
More shocking to both Sam and Alex is when they discover
that the murderer seems to be focusing on Sam. The question
is why and just how closely is he following Sam? The
tension is getting as hot as the relationship between Sam
and Alex as the days go by. Plans are constructed by the
team, but it might be too late for Sam to escape whatever
the murderer has planned for her.
What to do when your life has been turned upside down
unexpectedly? Pitch Black asks that question
of both Samantha and Alex but for very different reasons.
Samantha is determined that no one will be swindled again if
she can help it. Alex has been transferred to the black
sheep team as a chance to regain his career. I once again
fell into the twisted plot that Ms. Parrish constructed with
great suspense and characters you would love to have as
friends. The actual murderer was a surprise to me as I had
decided on someone with a totally different profession. I
just know that when the murderer is unveiled, most readers
will be surprised. On a side note, I was upset when one of
my favorite characters was killed. I had hoped that the
character would have a romance in the future. The pop and
sizzle between Samantha and Alex combined with an intriguing
suspense to make Pitch Black a must read for
suspense lovers. |
