Seattle Police Officer Tracy Crosswhite has been a patrol officer for six years despite having applied for several promotions. She’s assigned a freelance journalist as a ride along following a damaging exposé by a television reporter citing sexism within the department. Tracy begins her night shift, referred to as third watch, when she responds to a domestic disturbance call that immediately escalates.
This isn’t your typical short story where you’re left feeling like you wanted more of something. It nimble sets up the political situation the department and Tracy is mired in before she answers that call and then shifts to the tension and suspense surrounding a volatile domestic call. Everything that happens next kept me edgy and riveted. And, it delivered an ending that had me smiling. Now I’m ready for the first full length book in what promises to be a great series. This was perfect.

I didn’t realize there was a prequel to this wonderful series. I am going to read it as it is on KU. I have read 1 to 6 in this series and can tell you that you are in for a treat Jo. So glad this one piqued your interest.
You’re in for a treat, Carla💜 Hope you enjoy!
Oooo…another one. It also sounds wonderful. Excellent review, Jo!
