Publisher's Summary
From Wall Street Journal bestselling author Melinda Leigh comes the first thrilling novella in the Rogue Justice series.
When Detective Seth Harding responds to shots being fired, he faces a familiar sight: a double homicide. However, he is shocked to find a young boy chained in the basement. The terrified child refuses to speak, but Seth knows he is the key to something sinister.
Reluctantly, Seth calls the only social worker he trusts with the traumatized boy - his wife. Carly is recovering from her own trauma suffered on the job, but she can't turn away from this case, not from another child in trouble. With torrential rain bearing down, threatening to isolate their little town in a killer flood, Seth and Carly know the best way to keep the boy safe from danger is to take him back to their farm.
But danger is as relentless as the storm. And it's following them all the way home.

New novella from Melinda Leigh
Melinda Leigh follows her four Rogue River Novellas series with the first book in her new Rogue Justice series. The two series have exactly the same characters and the same setting, so Rogue Justice series is merely a continuation of Rogue River. The novellas are set in the real sparsely populated Rogue River and Rogue Valley region of southern Oregon. However, Rogue County and the name of the small town are fictitious. The protagonists are married couple Seth and Carly Harding. Carly comes from the leading family in the county where her dad was sheriff and her brothers are in law enforcement. Her husband is a detective. Her mom is the stabilizing force in the family and in the county.
The series are very family focused, but the crimes are real and horrible. Think of the two series as solid police procedurals with strong elements of mystery and suspense, and also with a strong family flavor. I enjoy Melinda Leigh's Rogue novellas and recommend these 3 hour audio books. Kate Rudd does a fine job of narrating.

So dumb.
The characters were weak and the women Whitney and needy. The narration made me dislike her even more.

Just another day in Solitude
This novella keeps you guessing from the start. Lots of drama and a wee but of romance. Recommend this series.

What happened?
I keep waiting for more to happen at the end. I had some questions about what happened to the boy, Uncle and his father? Needed everything tied up and finished.

Twisted Truth
It has been a little bit since I listened to this one but I enjoyed it. It started with gunshots and the discovery of two bodies. That wasn't the worst, there was also a small boy chained to the furnace in the basement. Seth knows he has to call his wife, Carly, a social worker, who has not been sleeping well after being traumatized by her last case but that cannot be helped, there is another child in need. When she comes to the scene and then accompanies him to the hospital there is an attempted kidnapping. So many twists and turns all while the rain is coming down and the county is flooding. Great suspense and great audio!
