Blood and Water
About this ebook
Life is good. Mac Davis, a former Marine, is now a cop reporter for the Seattle Examiner. He's had stories nominated for the Pulitzer Prize. He has a reputation as a hard-nosed reporter, and a good man to have at your back when trouble comes knocking.
And even Mac admits, around him, trouble usually does.
He has a career, a girlfriend, even a house. He has friends. He belongs.
But his past is knocking on the door.
His cousin calls in a favor. Fourteen years ago, Toby took the fall for a car theft, leaving Mac free to go into the Marines. And now? He needs Mac. Needs him badly.
A news clip out of Mexico shows a young man running from a burning building — and he wears Mac's face. So much so, people called to find out what he was doing in Mexico. It's his first lead to his father's family.
Exactly what do you owe the past?
Mac Davis is about to figure that out.
Book 5 in the Mac Davis thrillers — stories about a cop reporter who struggles to believe the pen is really mightier than the sword. But just in case? There's a Glock stashed in his backpack, along with a notebook and pen.
About the author
L.J. Breedlove is a former journalist writing mysteries and thrillers about what she knows: complicated people, small towns, big cities, cops, reporters, politicians, assorted bad guys.
L.J. grew up on a cattle ranch and then went to college to be an oceanographer. She decided getting seasick was not a good trait for any oceanographer to have, and discovered journalism instead — a field that liked people who asked questions!
As a reporter and editor, she worked in Alaska, Oregon, Idaho, Texas, and Washington, D. C. — places that have become the sites for her books. She got homesick for the Pacific Northwest and came home to work with college newspapers and teach journalism.
She is an over-educated, bleeding-heart liberal with a penchant for heroes such as Jack Reacher. She isn't particularly bothered by the inconsistency. Some of her thrillers have werewolves in them — that doesn’t faze her either.
You can follow her on Facebook at ljbreedlove. Best place to find her — besides a local coffee shop — is at ljbreedlove.com. You can sign up for her email newsletter there!
