About the Book:
You can take the detective out of the investigation, but you can't take the investigator out of the detective.
A notorious gang puts a bounty on Detective Cady Matthews’s head after she takes down their leader, leaving her no choice but to hide until she can testify at trial. But her temporary home across the country on a remote North Carolina island isn’t as peaceful as she initially thinks.
Living under the new identity of Cassidy Livingston, she struggles to keep her investigative skills tucked away, especially after a body washes ashore. When local police bungle the murder investigation, she can’t resist stepping in. But Cassidy is supposed to be keeping a low profile. One wrong move could lead to both her discovery and her demise.
Can she bring justice to the island . . . or will the hidden currents surrounding her pull her under for good?

My Thoughts:
Christy Barritt is back with a brand new series featuring a detective on the run after an undercover assignment puts her life in danger. Going undercover with the notorious DH-7 gang, she ends up taking risks that could cost her everything--including her life.
She goes into hiding on secluded island Lantern Beach--so secluded that it takes an extremely long drive and two ferry trips to find the place. No one will find new resident Cassidy Livingston, as long as she can keep her cover in place.
But when a dead body washes up on the beach and the local authorities are bungling the investigation, she finds a way to 'help' find the clues to solve the case. Her investigation takes her to, um, interesting spots on the island...
...like a fruit stand built from an old van, a diner run by a chemistry expert with wacky food combos that are surprisingly good, and a bubble gum pink ice cream truck with a mysterious mind of its own.
Why won't the residents of the island buy ice cream from her truck? Without the tourists, Cassidy wouldn't be able to make a living selling her frozen treats. New neighbor and retired Navy SEAL Ty Chambers is interested in learning more about Cassidy...
...but she's not very open and revealing. When he joins forces with her to find the perpetrator behind the body on the beach, can he learn more about Cassidy or will the Hidden Currents of her secrets take them both under?
Intense, witty, and difficult to figure out the perp before the story ends...that's what you'll find with a novel by Christy Barritt!
Hidden Currents gets four out of five stars from me!
Until the next page turns,
