A commitment to the law runs in his family, so attorney Ellington Black is taken aback when his own brother, a police captain, is accused of murder. Afraid his sibling is being railroaded by both the police department and the mayor's office, Ellington teams up with investigator Angela Stanfield in an attempt to uncover the truth and prove his innocence. When the killer strikes even closer to home, though, their growing relationship may put them both in mortal danger. VERDICT Fans of Mello's "To Serve and Seduce" series won't want to miss its fifth and latest installment, after Stalked by Secrets. Those who haven't read the rest of the series will still appreciate this well-paced romantic suspense page-turner.--Rebecca Moe
