Chasing After Trouble

Rating:
Summary: a quality story
Review: Derek Chase is an ex-cop turned private investigator given a second chance by the law firm, Garrett and Taylor. As it turns out, his first assignment is to bring Tessa Taylor's killer to justice. As his investigation unfolds, he is thrust into a web of police corruption and cover-ups. He is forced to confront his past and is surprised at what he finds.

Overall, I enjoyed Chasing After Trouble by T.M. DeLawrence. The twists toward the end of the book were unexpected and created a solid conclusion. I would like to see the main character, Derek Chase, have to work harder during his investigations. It seemed to me that he found the clues he needed easily, always made the right decision and always had the perfect line. He was too perfect, too good. It would have been easier for me to embrace the character and really cheer him on if he had some flaws. This, I believe, did not detract from the story on the broader level. T.M. DeLawrence crafted a quality story that works and created a wide range of characters. I would strongly recommend T.M. DeLawrence to others who enjoy murder mysteries.

The story is written in such a way that you feel like you know the characters and are there with them in the room. I would highly recommend this book for those of you who are looking for a fun and intriguing read by a great new talented author. I can't wait to follow Derek Chase on his next adventure and see if he resolves things in his personal life.
