National bestselling author Kiki Swinson amps up the action and suspense with unpredictable characters, breakneck twists, and a gut-punch portrait of Southern surviving--and dying. Now the odds are straight-up killer when a private eye gets in way over her head...

Too much to prove...
A former journalist with a knack for unraveling dirty secrets, Khloé Mercer figures if she's going to risk her life, she might as well make big money as a private investigator. But this reckless newbie needs a major case to make her name--and really show she can handle Norfolk, Virginia's toughest streets...

Too much to hide...
When a narcotics detective's widow needs someone to investigate her disgraced husband's so-called suicide, Khloé jumps at the lucrative fee--and the clues that the Norfolk Police Department is rotten from top to bottom. And with formidable backup from her ex-felon uncle, she turns the city upside-down to uncover the truth...

Too late to run...
But Khloé's cage-rattling tactics and high-wire strategies threaten both the cops and the city's brutal underworld alike. Now, with her life in the crosshairs and no one she can trust, she'll find that building a reputation comes with a price she may not survive to pay...

This was a fun read that had everything I have come to expect with a Kiki Swinson read.

Khloe Mercer, a former journalist, turned private investigator, is approached by Frances Larson to look into her husband’s death. This case could be the undoing for Khloe as Frances is paranoid when she meets her and causes the case to become very tricky. What is going on?

Public Enemy #1 is a story full of twists, turns, drama, and intrigue with every page turn. I like Ms. Swinson’s writing, and not only will I read every book she writes, I look forward to the day some of these stories come to life on the big screen.
