The third book from clinical psychologist turned crime fiction author, Leah Giarratano, BLACK ICE is due out on 1st July - so I'll hold my full review until then.
From the Blurb:
Beautiful people can do terrible things...
A mother out of gaol, hell-bent on vengeance, desperate to be reunited with her son.
An ambitious cop trying to bust a Sydney drug cartel.
A glamorous society couple living the high life - he's a successful lawyer, she's a model. He's also feeding her growing cocaine and ice habit.
When Detective Sergeant Jill Jackson goes undercover to investigate Sydney's drug lords, these worlds collide. Soon people are going to get hurt.
Opening Lines:
Seren ignored the sting of the fly sucking blood from her ankle. She pushed her lips into the salty skin of her knees, pressing the sobs back behind her teeth. This is the last night, she told herself. The last night with her back to the wall, shrunk into the corner, praying for morning.
