|
A complicated history. A deadly future. Can one woman survive another deep dive into the rotten underbelly of crime?
Angeline Porter craves a return to normalcy. But when the former criminal defense attorney receives an alarming text, she races in desperation to Florida only to find a ransacked apartment, a poisoned dog, and a missing half-sister. Determined to rescue her sibling, she follows a trail of shockingly incriminating clues and plunges into a life-or-death fight with the Boston mob.
Taking advantage of old ties with a charming FBI agent and trying to outsmart a violent syndicate boss with powerful federal connections, Angeline and dubious allies begin tracking down the kidnappers… until she uncovers a supposed protector's crafty deception. And while a nefarious rogue agent, a long-lost relative, and a possibly corrupt cop close in, the gutsy woman makes the risky decision to go it alone.
Is her headlong race to save her sister about to zip her into a body bag?

Hot on the trail, Angeline is thrown into a life-or-death fight with the Boston mob. A twisty plot, great locations, and a gutsy protagonist you'll root for all the way. A fabulous finale to a sophisticated series that can also be enjoyed as a stand-alone title." ~ Kaira Rouda, USA Today and Amazon Charts bestselling author
"Like the first two books featuring the disbarred Oregon attorney Angeline Porter, 1 Last Betrayal is meticulously crafted by a writer who never seems to take a false step: every clue, every revelation, every betrayal dovetails into the next one. The secondary characters – a conflicted detective, a cold-blooded mobster – are expertly drawn, and the narrative's sexual aura, like its portrayal of grief, is refreshingly realistic. But in the end, Angeline – analytical, morally grounded, deeply courageous – remains the book's anchor, a principled woman who refuses to give in even as the walls close around her in what, for my money, is Valerie Brooks' finest novel to date." ~ Tim Applegate, Flamingo Lane and Fever Tree
"With 1 Last Betrayal, author, Valerie J. Brooks, has delivered a seductive, intricately twisted suspense-thriller that's nearly impossible to put down. When onetime defense attorney, the tough-yet-vulnerable Angeline Porter, investigates the disappearance of her half-sister, she's plunged into a sinister underworld of double-dealing, corruption, kidnapping, and murder. Nothing is what it seems, and no one can be trusted. As you start 1 Last Betrayal, get ready for a wild ride with plenty of suspense, action, and shocking surprises." ~ Kevin O'Brien, New York Times Bestselling Author of The Night She Disappeared
