The Devil in Her Way by Bill Loehfelm
276 Pages
"Kicking
off her final week of field training, Maureen takes a punch from a
panicked suspect bursting out of an apartment. Her training officer
laughs it off, and the incident even yields a small victory: the cops
recover a stash of pot and guns. But out on the street, on the fringes
of the action, Maureen sees something sinister transpire between two
neighborhood boys that leaves her shaken, and she knows there’s more to
the story than she’s seen. As we follow Maureen’s dangerous hunt for
answers, Loehfelm leads us around New Orleans’s most hidden corners and
into its darkest outposts."
The middle book of the three books surrounding this character I found it to be the best. We get to know Maureen a little better and learn as she tries to fit into her new career. Overall the series is uneven though and I would hesitate to recommend it to a mystery lover.
