Before I Wake, Dee Henderson’s most recent novel, is just as gripping as the rest of her books. Rae Gabriella arrives in Justice, Illinois in search of a quiet place to settle and regroup her life. A former undercover investigator for the FBI, Rae is left dangling after her last case goes awry.
Rae’s former boyfriend, Bruce Chapel, has invited her to come to Justice to work with him as his partner in his private investigation service. Rae moves into town just as peace and quiet abandons Justice. On her way into town, Rae meets Sheriff Nathan Justice, thanks to her lead foot.
When bodies begin appearing in Justice, the town is flabbergasted. Could the murders be connected? Together Rae, Nathan and Bruce work to solve the crimes. Then Rae becomes a target. Why? What did she know? Time is against them. Will they figure it out before Rae becomes another casulty?
As usual, Dee’s writing grabs the reader and keeps the pages turning. The dash of romance Dee mixes into her suspense is just enough to satisfy readers who want it but not so much as to turn off readers who’d rather not have it.
Now, who will Rae Gabriella end up with – Nathan Justice or Bruce Chapel? We’ll just have to wait and see.
