Secret Investigation

Secret Investigation by Elizabeth Heiter is a fast-paced suspense novel. It is the second novel in the Tactical Crime Division series. Each book in this exciting series can be read on its own. This novel has strong characters and plenty of action. Romance does develop between our primary characters and I like that it builds slowly. I appreciated that there were not passionate love scenes (I am not into intimate scenes in books). I like the suspense and danger in this story. I find it intriguing. Readers will enjoy trying to identity of the bad guy (depending on your sleuthing level on how soon you figure out this whodunit). I liked that there was more to the mystery than just defective armor. There is danger, suspense, romance, and action in this intriguing tale. I found Secret Investigation to be a captivating story that was over far too soon. Secret Investigation will have you quickly turning the pages to see what happens next.

Secret Investigation by Elizabeth Heiter Tactical Crime Division #2 The TCD is called in to find out why the body armor supplied to soldiers failed and so many were killed. Davis Rogers is to head up the team looking into Petrov and will end up going in undercover as Leila Petrov’s assistant. There are at least three viable suspects that are being considered. Melinda and Kane are helping out in a side investigation that overlaps the one Davis is working on and their situation is also complicated by...feelings. What I liked: * Davis: an army ranger who gives his all to the job and is focused on finding out why the armor failed and his friend died. He is also interested in the chemistry between him and Leila. * The side story of Melinda and Kane – do want to know how that will turn out...maybe in another book in the series. * The concept of the series and getting to know the various team members * Knowing that there will be more books in the series * That the bad guy was found * That Leila & Davis have potential for the future What I did not like: * The bad guy * The group that was buying from Petrov on the down-low * The times I would think, “Would it really happen like that? Did I enjoy this book? Yes Would I read more in the series? Yes Thank you to NetGalley and Harlequin Intrigue for the ARC – This is my honest review. 4 Stars
