One Fatal Error and someone dies. Who's to blame? Guilt, grief, blame, betrayal...and ultimately, forgiveness.
One fatal error and four lives are entwined forever.
When the police chopper rescues her from The Traz biker compound, fourteen-year-old Katrina thinks she’s escaping her brutal past. But she soon discovers that the cops know her darkest secrets, and she slides into an emotional hell of horror and guilt.
Shrug, the undercover officer who recruited her to the gang, struggles to undo the harm he has inflicted, but his attempts to protect Katrina spiral out of control. His boss, Sergeant Kindle, knows nothing can be forgotten and much must be forgiven before Katrina and his officers will be free from the aftermath of the police sting.
Betrayed by Shrug, the gang, and life, Katrina faces one more hurdle when Chad, the undercover officer she views as her soul mate. announces his engagement to another.
Broken hearts, inner turmoil, outer danger, fear, retaliation, reprisal...will anyone make it out alive?
Excerpt
Katrina drank in the astounding beauty of the Alberta September. Across the river, gold leaves glittered behind the red berry bushes lining the bank.
Interspersed in the dazzle of fall colours were the spruce trees, stretching their deep green toward the rich, late-afternoon sun. The sky was a cloudless blue dome and the air was thick with the pungent scent of autumn.
Fallen leaves, some mottled and others striped, crunched beneath their feet. This was the time of year when she used to go hunting with Grandpa.
Hunting ducks and geese involved autumn skies and sunrises and sunsets. And colourful reflections in ponds. She'd always remember the calls of the birds echoing off cool morning mists and the warmth of a retriever, shivering with excitement.
But those moments were long gone.
When they were away from traffic and pedestrians, Cooper motioned her to stop. She took a spot on a park bench and watched the diamond sparkles racing downstream on top of the wavelets.
Cooper joined her on the bench. "Sergeant Kindle wants to question you about a murder."
She froze and the world became deathly quiet.
