Justice Buried
A Memphis Cold Case Novel #2
By Patricia Bradley

Kelsey Allen has found the perfect career for her unique skills and she's determined to get her security consulting business started. The sooner she becomes legitimate the sooner the media and police will know that she isn't the thief she appears to be.

When a new opportunity arises at the Pink Palace Museum to test their security and fill-in as the new conservator Kelsey takes the job. But there are ghosts from her past that this job will force her to have to deal with. Her father's disappearance nearly 30 years ago is tied to the Pink Palace. And when her high-school crush Detective Brad Hollister catches her in the midst of security duties (off the record) she has to do some quick explaining if she plans to keep her cover.

But someone may think Kelsey knows more than she does and they are determined to keep her quiet and they aren't thinking of a big financial payoff. With her life on the line, Brad Hollister and the Memphis police force just might be the only thing between her and a most untimely demise.

Justice Buried is another fast-paced suspense novel from Patricia Bradley that will keep readers turning the pages. And the way the past and present come together adds an interesting twist to the cases for both the Cold Case and Homicide units. Kelsey is an interesting character with whom one can empathize with as she struggles to come to terms with her long absent, criminal father. This is the second book in the Memphis Cold Case series but can be easily read as a standalone if you haven't read Justice Delayed. Get ready to sit back and enjoy a long afternoon of suspense and a second chance at romance.
