Retired FBI agent, Tupper Jones, has made a name for himself as a private eye. But today isn't his day. His partner and right-hand woman, Caroline Collins, has woken up next to the dead body of the FBI's star mob witness with no memory of what happened. Tupper and Caroline must solve the mystery of what happened before the FBI puts Caroline away for the murder.

I love, LOVE, how the MC - Caroline - refuses to let the classification of 'victim' label her. I'm not a hardcore feminist, but I appreciate stories that show women standing up for themselves/not becoming the 'damsel-in-distress' all the time. Other than that, this was a great story. Fast-paced, realistic characters, and a surprising twist that got me.
