Synopsis:
Detective Connie Giannelli's life has been torn apart several times. First when her mother died and then years later when she found out her Uncle Dominic was in the mob. Her life is about to be shredded again, and this time it could destroy her.
Connie’s love of family and her badge are both threatened when an undercover drug bust leaves two cops dead and the drugs missing. Internal Affairs is looking for any excuse to take her badge, but she’s not worried about them finding the missing drugs—her secrets could prove to be far worse.
Now Connie’s racing against the clock to figure out who killed her partners and took the drugs—dirty cops or Uncle Dominic’s friends. And she has to do it before IA pins the whole damn thing on her.

My Review:
I liked this book. I am half Italian and I still liked this book. Family is everything. From the first chapter when a baby was involved I was hooked. This book reminded me mafia movies I have seen. However this book seemed different from the rest for me because IA was right in the middle of Connie's family.I thought that they would be caught any minute. The hospital scene at the end was also a favorite part of the book for me! The book did end in a few cliffhangers and there really wasn't an ending. So because the book wasn't "complete" I am giving it a 4/5. I definitely loved everything else about this book, and can not wait for more from the author. he Italian family dynamics were awesome, and the "loud dinners" reminded me of holidays at my grandparents when I was little.
This book had everything that I thought would be in a crime thriller and then some. I definitely know where the next book is headed and I can not wait for it to be released.
