Sophia Parker, the director of SPNI, pulls together the group of family and friends she's holidaying with in Bogota, mostly working in law enforcement, to help. This takes them on a treacherous journey dodging bullets and gangsters from Colombia to her hometown in Savannah.
Deception: Savannah Sizzle Book 1 by Alex Croft is an exceptionally well-written suspense romance novel that will keep you guessing and unable to put it down. I loved it! I loved the author's detailed descriptions; you can feel the danger and the setting the characters are in. I enjoyed being immersed in their crime-solving world as they hope to get all the answers and bring down the menacing force behind all the murder and crime that's crossed continents. Joshua Hunt was my favorite character: loyal, passionate, and protective! If Deception is an example of this author's writing skills then I'm looking forward to reading more from Alex Croft.
