Book Description:
An Air Force Major finds herself assigned to investigate the murder of another female officer. She learns to her dismay that her "best" witness is an MIT-educated, one-time hockey superstar...and an ex-convict. His respect for law and order is severely lacking, as is his desire to help the Major. But as she investigates the crime, she learns that her witness isn't as cynical as he likes to pretend, and their relationship wanders from the professional to the personal....

Marsha S. (Major Carly Samuels, a top JAG attorney, leapt at the chance to investigate the murder of a high-profile female officer. The initial police report cited Ryan McMann, a fallen hero with ice-blue eyes and a chilling past, as a key witness to the murder. But as the investigation proceeds, it seems Ryan was a little closer to the crime than Carly wanted to believe. Now, as a web of torrid secrets comes to light, the line between witness and suspect starts to blur--and the boundary between trust and betrayal is about to be crossed....
The reviewer listed in'Detail' on PBS sight was dumb! This was a intense, well written, military based thriller. Fast paced and current. Very good read.
