Jane Doe Black (Lainey Abbott Book 1) Kindle Edition by Nia Forrester

Book Excerpt:

"She dedicated her life to working for the justice system, but it didn't work for her when she needed it most.

On the eve of the trial, Assistant District Attorney Lainey Abbott gets a disturbing phone call. Her baby sister, Stephanie, who should have been back at her college dorm after visiting for the weekend, never arrived. At first, she isn't too worried because she's a system insider with plenty of resources available to locate her sister quickly, including Russ Sanders, the police detective she's been on and off with for years. It'll take a couple days, tops. They'll find Steph and give her a piece of their mind for being so irresponsible.

But a year later, Stephanie still hasn't been found.

And what's worse, the system Lainey once had so much faith in, no longer seems inclined to look. Reeling from the loss, her career and personal life are in freefall, and most days, she can't even bring herself to care.

Until another case surfaces, of a girl who's gone missing under strikingly similar circumstances to Steph's..."

Review:
"Jane Doe Black" by Nia Forrester

My Sentiments:

'Jane Doe Black' was a read that will keep one turning the pages to see what was going on with Lainey Elaine] Abbott, a New York Assistant District Attorney after her sister Stephanie's visit went missing on her way back to Penn University supposedly. This will be quite a read as Lainey has another problem to contend with...her drinking. What will happen after her friend or ex-boyfriend Russ Sanders, who was a police detective, comes to Elaine's rescue trying to help her find her sister? This is a case in which the police seemed incompetent, as they seemed to let cases become cold way too soon. I shouldn't have said that...but check this read out for yourself!

It will be quite a read with lots of twists and turns, complex characters, as we see how the injustice system can be, missing women of color, death, suspense, mystery, romance, angst, and a family member who was a person whom Lainey thought she knew, but did she really?

As the story ends, the reader will not be left hanging, as the author gives it all to us. You will have to pick up this good read to see what she did for us by the end of this story. It is indeed a good, well-written story.
