After a harrowing attempt on a judge's life at the
courthouse, Deputy US Marshals Madison James and Jonas Quinn are tasked with
finding a missing woman and an endangered child in connection to the murder of
the judge's wife. What seems like a fairly straightforward case becomes
hopelessly tangled when the marshals discover that the woman they are searching
for is in witness protection and the Amber Alert put out for the missing child
has put two lives in danger.
Madison and Jonas are forced into a race to find the woman
and the child before the men who want her dead discover her location. And in a
final showdown that could cost her everything, Madison will come face-to-face
with the person who murdered her husband.
My
Thoughts:
The
Catch by Lisa Harris develops three mysteries in one
novel. With a quick run for their lives, someone accused of murder, and someone
else trying to figure out a crime that took her husband, there is plenty of
action firing across the pages of the story. The heroine, Madison, has been the
same heroine for all three novels in this series, which I really liked. It gave
Harris plenty of time to dive deep into character and find what motivates her.
Also, the romance between her and Jonas had plenty of time to spark and wonder
if anything was going to develop. As for the plot, as I mentioned before, there
was three mysteries to untangle. Harris crafted the novel where Madison would
focus on one aspect of one of the novels, then the next one would rear its ugly
head and take her away from the first mystery.
The moved along quickly, but did allow some downtime for the characters
as they rushed from keeping their victims lives safe. Overall, The Catch featured a satisfying
conclusion to the mystery in this page, and readers will be happy to see the
overall mystery that featured Madison is finally brought to life. I can't wait
to see what Harris will craft next.
I received a complimentary copy of The Catch by Lisa Harris from Revell
Publishing, but the opinions stated are all my own.

Rating: 4.5 out of 5 stars
