What could be more heartless than abducting a child? Worse ... to genetically alter her? This is Book 1 of The Tacket Series. Great writing, tense situations ... but if you don't like cliffhangers, this isn't for you. Thus far there are seven books in the series.
Emily is a runaway teen adopted by the only person in the world she could trust, but no sooner adopted than orphaned when her new mother was diagnosed and died of pancreatic cancer. Before Jennifer Brelin died, she recommended that Emily trust her best friend, Detective Victoria Tacket. Jennifer wrote a letter to Victoria asking her to adopt Emily. With further instructions to change Emily's name and make sure the records were scrubbed from any computers. However, Vick doesn't see the letter until after she's told the child protective services guy it would be impossible for her to adopt the child.
That's information enough. Emily disappears, but has to hang around to grab that letter. A master of disguises, Emily hides in plain sight at the police headquarters, determined. Alarmed, Vick issues a missing person bulletin, the letter still unread. In a quiet moment after the rest of the officers have gone home for the day, she sits down to finally read Jennifer's last letter to her and immediately realizes too late that the missing person bulletin is the last thing she should have done. She's in danger.
Oh my. As you can see, this is a spine-tingler, a step above your normal mystery. Available free from both Amazon and Barnes and Noble in ebook format. It won't cost you a thing, but you just might get hooked!
