Lone Witness by Rachel Dylan is the second book in her Atlanta Justice series. Prosecutor Sophie Dawson is the only witness to a ruthless double murder by the younger brother of a notorious gang leader. Now, she must testify and prosecute a local bank employee who might be cheating his customers, all while staying out of the cross-hairs of the gang. Convinced that she is in danger her father hires Cooper Knight as Sophie’s bodyguard. With threats coming from everywhere, Cooper and Sophie are not sure whom they can trust. Will Cooper be able to keep Sophie alive to testify? It’s only a matter of time before someone strikes again and this time it could be fatal. Wow, this story was very intense! From the very beginning you were sucked in and it never let up. There were a few surprises that I didn’t see coming. I loved the interaction between Sophie and Cooper and the way they supported each other in their weaknesses. I was afraid that the court room dialogue would become too technical but Ms. Dylan made it all very easy to follow and not be boring. I would highly recommend this series to anyone who likes fast paced action thrillers.
I received this book from the publisher in exchange for my honest review.
