The police can't help you
Former CIA agent Jack Morgan runs Private, a renowned investigation company with branches around the globe. It is where you go when you need maximum force and maximum discretion. The secrets of the most influential men and women on the planet come to Jack daily—and his staff of investigators use the world's most advanced forensic tools to make and break their cases.
The press will destroy you
Jack is already deep into the investigation of a multimillion-dollar NFL gambling scandal and the unsolved slayings of eighteen schoolgirls when he learns of a horrific murder close to home: his best friend's wife, Jack's former lover, has been killed. It nearly pushes him over the edge. Instead, Jack pushes back and devotes all of Private's resources to tracking down her killer.
Only one place to turn: Private
But Jack doesn't have to play by the rules. As he closes in on the killer and chooses between revenge and justice, Jack has to navigate a workplace love affair that threatens to blow the roof off his plans. With a plot that moves at death-defying speeds.

Justine is working on the case of the missing school girls; school girls who are tricked into their abductions and mu...
This book was a great read it was interesting and the private investigation firm is something I don't end up reading much of in this genre. At the beginning of this book when they were explaining their lab set up I was concerned this was going to be like an episode of Bones or CSI but I was pleasant...
As others have pointed out this is neither the best nor worst book that I have read by the author, would have rated it higher if story had stuck to one plot point instead of being split into many. Also have to say that Jack Morgan is an ass, albeit a smart, clever and charming one.The series has pot...
