Suspicion

I was so happy when I came upon, "Suspicion." I love mystery novels a lot and I was running out of them to read. Luckily, I discovered Christiane Heggan. "Suspicion" was my first Heggan novel and I loved it so much that I already am beginning another one right now. Kate Logan, a tough defense attorney, is selected to represent two separate people. One is her ex-husband who is charged with killing a prositute and the other person is Kate's housekeeper's son, who is charged with killing his girlfriend. Kate knows that both are innocent and decides to start her own investigation. She soon becomes suspicious and feels that the prositute and the girlfriend was murdered by the same person. Soon Kate is being stalked and attacked by the murderer. Kate along with police officer, Mitch Calhoun, must bring down this group of murderers before Kate's friends who are charged with murder go to jail for life. Congratulations to Mrs. Heggan because she made it to my list of favorite authors!Brad Stonecipher

I always like to find a new author that keeps my interest and this is my newest find! The characters and plot are wonderful. There is always a new event or fact that surfaces to keep you interested in the story.

"Suspicion" is the first book that I have read by Christiane Heggan. It was a real page turner. lots of suspense and romance. Looking forward to reading another by this author.

Washington DC defense attorney Kate Logan is shook after her client, Tony Fuente, is convicted of murdering Lilly, a law clerk from Kate's firm. To prepare for the appeal, Kate decides to dig into Lilly's investigation of a prostitute ring. As she struggles with helping Tony, her former spouse Eric was being blackmailed by a prostitute, who is now dead. Eric is the prime suspect. Because of the pleadings of Alison, her estranged daughter, Kate agrees to help Eric prove his innocence. Police detective Mitch Calhoon is also looking into both cases even though his expert testimony helped convict Tony. While, he and Kate work together trying to insure that justice is served, they become attracted to one another. However, some powerful folks in the city want the truth to stay hidden and if that means killing Mitch, Kate, and Alison, so be it. SUSPICION is an exciting, fast-paced romantic suspense whose dual story lines successfully blend together into a fabulous mystery. The lead protagonists are phenomenal individuals struggling with their professional and personal lives, while trying to come to grips over their growing attraction to each other. Already highly regarded for her contemporary suspense novels, Christiane Heggan enhances that reputation with a story that will intrigue readers. Harriet Klausner
