Description

Book four in the New York Times bestselling Rose Gardner Investigations series. 

Rose Gardner feels like she’s up a creek without a paddle. Her sister is dying, her secret boyfriend, James Malcolm, is struggling to protect the county underworld from an upstart drug dealer, and her ex has moved back to town with a bee in his bonnet and a mission to root out corruption in the county. To make matters worse, Neely Kate is in dire straits too—the past she’s spent years trying to forget has finally caught up to her, with horrific fallout. They’re in the thick of danger, and everyone’s quick to tell them they’d do best to hunker down and keep to themselves.
 
But mysteries have a way of finding Rose and Neely Kate. A mother contacts them about finding her missing teenage daughter the same day they find a different young woman stranded by the side of the road. They know they should turn down the case, just as they should ignore the signs that the woman with the broken down car is running from something, but for Rose and Neely Kate, curiosity will always have a stronger call than danger.

    I just finished this book and I have to say I am an emotional mess. I was drawn in and have loved each book. I can’t put them down and have read straight through to this one. Gosh, this one has made me the most emotional. I don’t want to give away anything but that ending... my heart feels ripped from my chest. Especially after the bonus material of Violets conversation with SM. Ughhhh. I can’t praise this series enough. I’m definitely a fan for life and can’t wait for Roses next installment. Until then I’ll move on to Nealy Kate’s Dirty Money.
  • So good!

    As always I’m completely in love with this book. Swank knows how to deliver just the goods I need! There is mystery, romance, humor and love mixed with southern charm. I’ll be bouncin’ on my toes until the next Rose Gardener mystery appears to satisfy my cravings! Hopefully with a steaming cup of James Malcom to keep me warm ;)

    I’ve been on the Rose bandwagon for quite some time. I’ve read every book over and over and there hasn’t been a single one to disappoint me yet. The rollercoaster that we go on during every book keeps me coming back for more!! I love every bit of chaos that Rose and NK bring our way. 10/10 recommend!!!

    I happened to stumble upon these series about a year ago and I have devoured every book and have preordered and counted down the days until the next one came out. These are BY FAR the best, most intriguing, leave you wanting more series (or book in general) I have ever read! I just couldn’t put them down! And y’all, I don’t usually even enjoy reading. But these had me up into the wee hours of the night just trying to get to the next chapter! Start from the very beginning 28 and a half reasons why and you won’t regret it!
  • One of the best yet!

    This latest installment in the series blew my mind. Everything I hoped for Rose is coming to pass but at what cost? Neely Kate and Jed just may find their HEA finally. Joe is slowly but surely becoming the man we all knew he had it in him to be. Excellent writing and another amazing story by Denise Grover Swank.
  • Wonderful

    I don’t know how she does it over and over. A lot of authors who turn out multiple books, you can tell they are just filling space. Denise’s books are top shelf, full #100 EVERY SINGLE BOOK. Every single one has a complex plot that literally makes me bite my nails off, and I haven’t been a nail biter since junior high. Sooooo goood!!!
  • Amazing writer

    The books about Rose and Neely Kate keep you on the edge of you seat. When you come to the end, you feel empty and wanting more. Denise is an amazing author. You really feel like the characters are your personal friends. Looking forward to Dirty Money.
