Aftermath by Rachel Trautmiller

AFTERMATH (The Bening Files Book 3)

About the Book:  

Lives taken. Families destroyed. Trust betrayed. Rebuilding is paramount to survival. Can all family hurdles be overcome? Does forgiveness come to all? Redemption awaits…

Teenage girls are going missing in broad daylight. No witnesses. No struggle. Having been tipped off from the last person anyone should trust, Baker Jackson Robinson knows involving Detective Amanda Nettles is risky. For her, their colleague, SBI Agent Parker Williams and himself. Convincing her to put her life and career on the line isn’t a decision he’s made lightly.

With a new string of crime on the horizon, Detective Amanda Nettles keeps herself plenty busy. Doesn’t think about an unfinished wedding to her favorite FBI agent. The almost family that wasn’t. Nor the thorough Internal Affairs investigation that left her—and her coworkers questioning everything inside the precinct, fingers pointed in her direction. Instead, toeing the line is more important than ever. And hoping her talent and work ethic might restore her once-good name.

But she’s not stupid enough to believe it will return anything—or anyone else.

When Parker Williams is brutally attacked and left for dead, the journal of a young girl the only thing linking his whereabouts to their current case, however minimal, the choice is simple. This teen is either the missing puzzle piece they need or another wild goose chase sending them down a narrow rabbit hole.
Either way, life is life. And Amanda’s done hiding. With the pages of the missing teen’s diary eerily like another woman’s, they’ll have to decide if coming face-to-face with unspeakable evil will yield answers or crumble an already shaky foundation.

My Review

Another great adrenaline-laced book--that is what I would say if you asked me about this book! Chock full of mystery, suspense, romance, and one-line zingers--this book has a little something for everyone. The best part of the story though, for me, is the underlying theme of redemption, forgiveness, and grace. There are a few swear words but the storyline is so good, it is easy to overlook them. I would wholeheartedly recommend this book as a must-read!

Thank you to the author for a copy of this book--the opinions and thoughts are my own.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars
