Sex .. Murder...Politics... this book has it all.

A beautiful young woman is pushed from the balcony of one of the most powerful people in Washington, DC. Assistant US Attorney Anna Curtis is called to start an investigation.
Her personal life and her professional life collide when she is assigned to the case being prosecuted by her boss and her lover.

Discretion is the name of the 'house' where high-end escorts are handed out like candy in a candy dish to many of the high-powered and well-known politicians.

This is the 2nd book featuring Anna Curtis (Law of Attraction) and the 3rd out is Speak of the Devil.

If you like legal thrillers, you will love the action, the legalese, and there are plenty of bad guys to go around... they are, after all, politicians.

When a high end call girl plummets to her death from the balcony of one of Congress' powerful representatives, Anna Curtis is called in. She's a U.S. Assistant Attorney who specializes in sex crimes. She's in a relationship with Jack Bailey, chief homocide prosecutor and next in line for the US Attorney General position. Although they decide to work the case together, that decision is soon lifted from them. Jack is taken off of the case and Samantha Randazzo, a FBI agent, is given the case to work on with Anna.

Through the intricacies of politics, the dirty little secrets of not only the politicians but the escorts and determination do Anna and Samantha begin to unravel the mystery surrounding the girl's deathly plummet. But along the way in their investigation, more secrets begin to come to light, putting Anna and Sam's lives in danger.

From page one, Discretion pulls you into the web of secrets, murder, romance and sensational, driven characters. I couldn't turn the pages fast enough, wanting to know what plot twist or development would happen next in this fast-paced summer thriller! Leotta has definitely given her readers some of the inside scoop of the capital - or that is how it presents itself. Nail-biting and satisfying - thriller readers won't want to miss this one!
