Brenda
Her husband was dead. Relief and horror warred inside her – but mostly it was relief. Lily Bennetti hadn’t loved her husband Gino in a long time. His brutality, cruelty and lack of care for anything or anyone; combined with the drugs he introduced young, innocent teens to – including his son Luke – was legendary. But now Lily knew she had to hold her secrets tight inside – her protection of Luke was paramount.

Detective Mark Johnson had been after the gang of drug dealers in Perth for a long time

Under Cover Of Dark is book three of the Under The Law series by Juanita Kees. Detective Mark Johnson was desperate to put Gino Bennetti and his partner behind bars for personal reseason. However, he had no evidence to achieve his aim until Gino Bennetti dies. The readers of Under Cover of Dark will continue to follow Detective Mark Johnson to see if he made his objective of putting away the murder of a young boy.

I love this series, and I enjoyed reading Under Cover of Dark. I like the way Juan

A fast moving, sexy story. I looked forward to this book after reading Under the Hood and I was not disappointed. Love a book I can't put down and this was one I could not put down. Detective Mark is a sexy and romantic hero and I loved to hate the villains in this story too. Lily's strength was well written so that she didn't come across as a snivelling victim despite what she has faced. Great stuff. Now I have to go back and find Fly Away Peta. ...more

I have read the entire Tag Raiders series by Juanita Kees. It begins with Fly Away Peta, continues in Under The Hood, and this is the new book in the series, Under Cover of Dark.
This book has handsome detective Mark Johnson (from each of the earlier books) centre stage as he tries to save the beautiful but haunted widow, Lily Bennetti and her son, from the drug/gang culture of an (at times) quite sinister capital of Western Australia - Perth.
The characters from Under The Hood - TJ and Scott - ha

Wow! Loved it! Fast paced, thoroughly interesting and engaging story which had me wanting to page turn faster than I could read!!!

A continuation of the Tag Raider series; we have Detective Mark Johnson who has featured previously, investigating the murder of Tiny Watts. The heroine of the story Lily, her story is told so well, it was believable. Loved the chemistry between the two. As characters they both grew as the book went on.

A solid and suspenseful story, action packed story line, fantastic

Juanita Kees, the author of "Under Cover of Dark" is one of the loveliest people you'll meet. This is a problem. "Under Cover of Dark" has an intense, harsh conflict at its core. It's about drugs and murder and recovering from long-term domestic abuse. Despite enjoying Juanita's previous book, "Under the Hood", I was worried that this darker book just couldn't work. How could someone so nice make me believe in the underworld?

By making it real.

The story doesn't dwell on the darkness, but nor does

If you enjoy a good romantic suspense, then this is the book for you. The story sizzles and there's wonderful chemistry between hero and heroine. Also some hot sex! I'm a sucker for a hunky, Aussie hero so I pretty much loved Mark from the start. And I could relate to Lily, a woman who wants to take care of her son who is involved in drugs and gangs. The story is suspenseful, warm and touching. ...more

I loved this continuation of the Tag Raiders series. The situation Lily finds herself in is horrible and I immediately felt for her. Mark is a fabulous hero who wants to protect her. Throw in a villain that is truly awful and you have a terrific story.
