Alone in the Dark
Book - 2016
New York Times bestselling author Karen Rose returns with a breathtaking novel of suspense in the Cincinnati series--one that crosses the line between danger and desire, and justice and revenge.
Homicide Detective Scarlett Bishop has seen enough bad guys slip through the cracks and innocent victims go unavenged to know that good doesn't always prevail. So far she's been able to lock away her rage and her vigilante fantasies. That lock is about to break.
Former Army Ranger Marcus O'Bannion is a fierce champion of victims' rights. His secret past gives him good reason. He believes he's seen the depths of human depravity, but then his investigation into the murder of a young girl who once asked for his help lures him and Scarlett down a dark, dark road--and straight into the crosshairs of a dangerous, powerful underground ring that deals in human trafficking. To stop them, Scarlett and Marcus have to be just as cunning and just as ruthless. But first they have to make it out alive.

Comment
Add a CommentI thought this was a very good book, but was a little to long. It seemed to me that the plot was dragged on and could have been made shorter and still be a very good book.
I have always enjoyed this author's books. This was not one of my favorites. Way too long & not a big fan of the main characters.
I have always enjoyed all of Karen Rose's books, but this one was not one of my favourites. I had a very hard time staying awake every time I tried to read it. As a result, I finally gave up and never finished it. The story seemed interesting, it was just taking forever to tell. Not one of her better ones, that's for sure.
