Justice, Illinois has always been a peaceful little town
where everyone knows their neighbors. Sheriff Nathan
Justice works hard to protect the town that his family
founded. When Rae Gabriella, former FBI turned private
detective, comes to town she thinks she's found the
perfect place for a new start at life. Instead of enjoying
some peace and quiet, Rae ends up in the middle of a
murder mystery! With the help of her ex boyfriend and
fellow coworker, Bruce Chapel, Rae starts her first case
as a private detective in this new town.
People are turning up dead in Justice, Illinois. They are
dying in their sleep from natural causes, one after
another. Something fishy is going on and Rae is going to
find out what, even if it puts her own life in danger. In
the meantime, the tile company in town is on strike. With
such a small police force, how will Sheriff Nathan Justice
be able to keep the peace in his town?
Rae is caught in the middle of two men who have obvious
feelings for her. Bruce still loves Rae and would do
anything for her. Sheriff Nathan Justice also is enjoying
Rae's company but Bruce is his friend. How will this
romantic triangle affect Rae? Will she pick one of these
men to be with or just remain good friends with them?
The three new friends work hard to find out what is
killing people in their sleep before it's too late. Who
is killing all the women who visit Justice, Illinois? Is
it something they're eating, drinking, touching, or
smelling? Or is there a murderer in town who is killing
the women, one by one?
I loved reading BEFORE I WAKE. It was very suspenseful and
the characters were very likeable. I thought I had the
mystery figured out, but I was wrong and pleasantly
surprised with the ending. With a full cast of characters,
the reader will have plenty of suspects as to who the
killer is. BEFORE I WAKE is intriguing, suspenseful, and a
very well written mystery. This was my first book by Dee
Henderson and I am looking forward to reading more by this
very talented author. If you're looking for an exciting
mystery, BEFORE I WAKE is the perfect book for you.
The sheriff of Justice, Illinois, is hunting a killer.
Women visiting town are being murdered, tourists in nice
hotels, money still in their billfolds, jewelry still on
the dresser. Quiet kills - they go to sleep and never
awaken. The sheriff is not pleased to find the new
detective in town, Rae Gabriella, working the case on
behalf of one of the families. She's staying in the same
hotel as one of the victims - and her classy looks and
upscale car suggest she could be the next victim.
