This was a great read. It reminded me of Linda Howard's After the Night, similar plot lines.
This was a GREAT book! I now will try and read all books by Beverly Barton.
Twenty years ago, Jolie Royale witnessed a crime that stained her home, Belle Rose plantation, with her family's blood. A shooting left her mother, her aunt's suspected lover dead, and Jolie critically wounded. The case was ruled a double homicide and suicide and quickly closed, though rumors abounded as to the murderer's real identity...
Jolie would never forget that day--but could never recall the killer's face. Now she is coming home with mixed feelings about her father's funeral. Soon those feelings turn into dread when the investigation into the triple murder is reopened--and it becomes clear that a killer is still on the loose.
Determined to put the past to rest, Jolie turns to Max Devereaux for help. Years ago,he made no secret of his resentment toward her family, but it seems many thngs have changed--including Jolie's feelings for her unlikely ally. Now, as she and Max work together to put back the lost pieces of her memories, the stricking distance between her and the killer closes. Someone can't wait for Jolie to remember his face, because by then it will be too late.....

A good read. Kept me guessing.
Great book.
I randomly foudn this book on PBS & decided to order it since I'm a big fan of romantic suspense, and I was pleasantly surprised by it -- loved Max & Jolie -- it was a good mix of mystery/detective story & romance/sexuality
Excellent Read
This was a page turner!
