Detective Lindsay Boxer's long-awaited wedding celebration becomes a distant memory when she is called to investigate a horrendous crime: a badly injured teenage girl is left for dead, and her newborn baby is nowhere to be found. Lindsay discovers that not only is there no trace of the criminals - but that the victim may be keeping secrets. At the same time, Assistant District Attorney Yuki Castellano is prosecuting the biggest case of her life - a woman who has been accused of murdering her husband in front of her two young children. Yuki's career rests on a guilty verdict, so when Lindsay finds evidence that could save the defendant, she is forced to choose. Should she trust her best friend or follow her instinct? Lindsay's every move is watched by her new boss, Lieutenant Jackson Brady, and when the pressure to find the baby starts interfering with her new marriage to Joe, she wonders if she'll ever be able to start a family of her own.

I can't decide how I feel about this book. The "mysteries" of it were terrible. You could pretty much guess exactly what happened ten words in to each case. Speaking of cases, I'm pretty sure HALF of this book is Yuki in court cases and if you've read any of my previous reviews... I have a great dislike for Yuki AND court cases.
On the other hand, I feel like the character development and writing was good this time. Which is new. It just makes my head spin. I wonder how much of these books are James Patterson and how much is Maxine Paetro. Like is she writing them but he proof reads it and throws his name on it so they can sell them? It weirds me out that he's this big name author but all of these books have another author's name scribbled in the smallest print possible at the bottom of the title.
