About this item

A high-profile murder has Sam and her team chasing an elusive killer…

Just back from their anniversary trip to Dewey Beach, there’s no slow roll back to work for the first couple as Sam is immediately thrust into the baffling murder of her friend and colleague, U.S. Attorney Tom Forrester, which has everyone on edge. The FBI wants in on this one, and she’s determined to figure out what happened to Tom before they can take over her investigation as new and unsettling details arise about the crimes involving disgraced former Lieutenant Stahl. A new development sends the investigation in an entirely new direction as Sam goes toe-to-toe with her husband’s uncooperative Attorney General.

In the midst of the hot new case, Sam’s got to put on her first lady hat for the Canadian Prime Minister and his wife, who are in town for the Cappuano administration’s first State Dinner. Once they get through that event, Sam and Nick will finally meet with Nick’s mother, who's asked for a chance to make things right with her son.

With all of that going on, who has time to breathe let alone plan an operation that’ll either snag a killer or end her career?

These books are so good! They should be top cop mysteries and be best sellers in that regard as well as romance. Sam’s crew is sharp and her team is top notch. These stories are exciting and action packed. No one is above the law in Sam’s town. This murder and attempted murder hit very close to home as Sam continues to juggle her life as First Lady and her job as the Lieutenant of Homicide in our nation’s capitol. Unraveling the secrets of Nick’s Attorney General and a criminal family from Kentucky. A state dinner and an unwelcome revisit with Nicoletta are only some of the loose ends Sam has to tie up. Kudos to Marie Force for once again giving us a story we cannot put down!

This book has you sitting on the edge of your seat and unable to put it down until you know who did it!!! Called back early from vacation with her husband the President Sam dives head first into who killed the U.S. Attorney. As always her banter and humor helps as she and her team hunt to find the killer.

This was an amazing story full of plot twists and dirty players!!! I loved it and like every book I cannot wait for the next!!!

All I can say is WOW! I read the book in one sitting! You never know what you get, right on the edge of the seat and pow. The cliff hangers help you anticipate the next Sam and Nick story, but it's hard to wait. Keep Sam and Nick going!

Once again she has done it. Marie mixes great suspense with love and humor to make an outstanding book. She leaves us wanting more. Can’t wait for the next one but am happy she has other projects in the pipeline. Thank you Marie for another amazing adventure

This is another totally entertaining book in this series. I love the characters, the camaraderie, the romance, the snark, the police work, and the political parts. It's very enjoyable. As always, I can't wait for the next book (though I am sad about Juan).
