Description

After her behavior during her drug years, Emily realizes she has a lot to prove. When police discover a homemade bomb under Emily's car, and she then learns the wife of one of her friends was murdered that same morning, she knows things are deadly serious. But who wants Emily dead? And why?

Critic Reviews
“"In the final novel of the Intervention series, Blackstock keeps the reader's attention from the first page until the heart-stopping ending. It's especially meaningful to follow the progress of drug-addicted Emily through her recovery and into a positive future."”
"Crisp prose, an engaging story, and brisk pacing make this thriller another home run for Blackstock. Recommend it to readers who enjoy material by Lynette Eason and Erin Healy." Library Journal RT Book Reviews
