FREE Frid 4/13-Sat 4/14: A Dangerous Harbor

The heroine, Katy, is a beautiful and appealing San Francisco cop, whose solo sailing vacation down to Ensenada turns into a busman’s holiday, complete with a dead body, ex-boyfriend, sleazy business tycoon, drug Cartels, and a seriously sexy Mexican lawman. --M. Louisa Locke, author of Maids of Misfortune & Uneasy Spirits
“Take a San Francisco police officer who is on leave for shooting a man who threatened her sister, send her on a sailing trip into Mexican waters where she finds the body of a murdered teenage girl, and you’ve got the mix for an intriguing mystery. Add an irresistible Mexican-Italian man who happens to be the lead investigator on the case and the romance begins to sizzle. I loved the vivid descriptions of this coastal Mexican town, and the methodic way in which officer Katy Hunter helps with the investigation. A satisfying ending in which all the threads come together into a neatly plotted book.” – Connie Shelton, author of the best-selling Charlie Parker mysteries and the new Samantha Sweet mysteries
“Dahlke does it again. As in her Dead Red series, Dahlke creates a protagonist the reader yearns to be like—beautiful, capable, and with the soul of adventure. San Francisco police officer Katrina Hunter deludes herself into believing she can sail away from her past. Instead, the waters of Mexico present her with a dead woman and a handsome police inspector eager to use Kate to help him solve the murder. The two circle around the growing sexual tension between them... Then her ex arrives and spoils it all. It’s clear Dahlke knows sailing and loves Baja. She weaves them throughout a story that moves along at a lively clip, yet allows the reader to bask in the sunny clime of Mexico . It might be a beach read, but it’ll work as well on a snowy day in the mountains. The complex plot and the relationship between these two cops will warm you right up.”
