Is there nothing a mother wouldn’t do to save her own child?
Rochelle Pendleton has a problem. Her three-year-old son, Joey, has been diagnosed with a potentially life-threatening illness, and his only chance for survival is a bone marrow transplant—and his odds are best with a familial donor, and she’s not a match. Her dilemma lies in the non-disclosure agreement she signed at Joey’s birth, exchanging her silence regarding the child’s paternity for a sizable cash settlement. Desperate to appeal to the man’s sensibilities without violating the NDA, Ms. Pendleton sets out to hire a team of private detectives to relay her urgent plea for help, but she can’t seem to find a firm willing to accept the assignment—at least not until she walks through the doors of Boggs Investigations.
Once Dwayne Morrow learns the identity of Joey’s father, a powerful senator with connections to an achingly fresh personal loss, it provides an unexpected opportunity to gain closure for his family while helping a distraught mother in the process. With or without Doug’s approval, it’s a case Dwayne simply can’t refuse.
Will Dwayne find the answers he’s looking for or will the senator’s highly-trained security detail stop him dead in his tracks?
Deception is the seventh edge-of-your-seat entry in the Dwayne Morrow Mystery series!
