DESCRIPTION:
"Well-Written and Exciting" according to booklover. Seven young women have been abducted, leaving no ransom notes, no bodies, and no clues. Detective Matt Brady is determined to find who or what is behind these abductions before another woman goes missing. especially his new girlfriend, a veterinarian who is determined to help find her assistant, one of the missing women.This storyline concept is terrific and extremely well-written. The author's experience in law enforcement is showca. Grady Harp said `If she had walked off into the sunset, why leave her briefcase and that pricey BMW in the parking lot?'. Alan Behr, a criminal law attorney and former police officer in Austin, Texas, takes on the moniker Alan Brenham for his second career as a writer. His debut novel, PRIDE OF JUSTICE was a certified winner with awards bestowed. Now he challenges that accomplishment with an even more thoroughly developed novel, CORNERED. Working in both criminal prosecution and defense (as well as an on the ground police officer) gives him a special in. "Thrilling from Start to Finish - Don't Miss This One!" according to John J. Staughton. You can always tell when a writer knows his subject matter in a deep and meaningful way. There is a certain quality in the phrasing, an honesty in the tension, and (when the stars align) brilliance in the overall product. Brenham made it clear that not only is he vastly knowledgeable about criminality, the legal system, police procedure, and criminal organizations, but he is also a clever and creative author who knows how to convince
His troubles are compounded when a young veterinarian injects herself into the investigation and is targeted to become victim number eight. When he tries to protect her, he finds himself in the crosshairs of a professional cop killer. He’s haunted by the memory of a kidnapping case gone wrong…Not wanting history to repeat itself, Detective Matt Brady struggles to solve the disappearances of seven young women, but he quickly finds himself pitted against a criminal organization that knows as much about police procedure as he does—an organization that will do whatever it takes to stay one step ahead of him. Can Brady solve the case in time to save his new love, or will this investigation be the death of both of them?
"Fascinating, well-researched thriller. This stuff really goes on." -James Hayman, USA Today Bestselling Author of Darkness First
