Deadly Bonds by L.J. Sellers
5.0
DEADLY BONDS is the ninth in the Detective Wade Jackson Mysteries series, and it is a nail-biter, a real page-turner. It might just be the most thrilling tale of the series. You might be able to put it down every now and again, but the last quarter of the book demands that it be finished by making your heart pound and by making your eyes water. You want the very best outcome here for all concerned.
Jackson is a play-by-the-rules cop who suffers from his humanity. He is a cop first and foremost which causes him internal struggles when dealing with those people in his personal life he holds most dear. He investigates murder, and he knows that the first few days of an investigation mean the difference between finding the killer or not. This dedication to the job makes it hard to pay attention to those he cherishes.
This time, he not only catches the case, he makes a small friend who latches onto his heart and won't let go. The messiness of life does seem to get a little less messy and a whole lot messier with each new book.
As long as L. J. Sellers keeps writing them, I will keep on reading them.
