Born and raised in Louisiana, Robin Caroll is a southerner through and through. Her passion has always been to tell stories to entertain others. Robin’s mother, bless her heart, is a genealogist who instilled in Robin the deep love of family and pride of heritage—two aspects Robin weaves into each of her books.
When she isn’t writing, Robin spends time with her husband of twenty-plus years, her 3 beautiful daughters, 2 precious grandsons, and their character-filled pets at home—in the South, where else?
When Gina Ford, the daughter of a prominent Tennessee politician, goes missing from the University of Memphis a week after another girl was murdered on the same campus, police call in the FBI. Nick Hagar, married to his job as Special Agent in Charge, is assigned to the case, and when Gina’s body is found, her father demands justice.
Maddie Baxter is the forensic expert running DNA tests from the crime scene. When they come back without a match, Nick asks her to do a familial DNA run that yields a shocking result: the prime suspect is Adam Alexander, the very same guy who broke Maddie’s heart when she was in college.
But do scientific advancements tell the whole story? Strand of Deception offers romance, suspense, and a lively debate about the impact of DNA testing, for better or worse, on the United States justice system.

My review...
Um, well....actually I didn't get the book until yesterday. Kind of hard to write the review. ;-) Watch for that coming later in a separate post.
But first, I'm curious. Fan of suspense? What of Robin's writing? I've read one novel, To Write a Wrong and thought it good. Eager to see what concepts she's wrapped into this one.
I've read all 3 of the Justice Seekers novels and liked every one of them. Robin Caroll writes great suspense and I haven't been disappointed in any of her books.
ReplyDeleteGreat to know. I think I came into the series in the middle, so I would have better familiarity with the characters if I started with book 1. Excited to actually start this one soon.
DeleteAww, thanks, Julie! :)
