    About this series

    "A Canadian detective sergeant hunts human traffickers who've slapped a target on his back in this sequel to Blue

    Star (2020)" - Kirkus Reviews

     

    An important crown witness in a case against a paedophile ring is found brutally murdered, the officers guarding him shot dead. The ring operated undetected in British Columbia for years, part of a much larger operation about which the police know nothing.

     

    An Indigenous hacktivist seeking information about the case finds a coded message hidden on an RCMP server. He risks exposure to warn the man he has come to grudgingly respect, Alex Desocarras, of its chilling contents. Desocarras is pushed headlong into a nightmare chain of events that will test the limits of his endurance against a ruthless adversary, and ultimately, force him to choose where his allegiance lies.

      Formerly published as End of Innocence   Blue Star, a gripping series opener, introduces Detective Sergeant Alex Desocarras, an Indigenous RCMP officer stationed in the town of 100 Mile House in British Columbia's beautiful and rugged South Cariboo.   Alex Desocarras has been a police officer for fifteen years. Smart and savvy, his solve rate is the envy of many. But his latest case has his gut in a knot. Carey Bolton, a Gits'ilaasü girl, was kidnapped one night after soccer practice. An anonymous tip that she was taken to an address in Vancouver, BC –1,200 kilometres from home, proved to be a dead end when the VPD reported the house empty. When the kidnapping of Anishinaabe filmmaker, Morgan O'Meara, lands in Desocarras' jurisdiction, Sergeant Jeri Fernice, VPD Missing Persons, reaches out with evidence that links the O'Meara and Bolton kidnappings. Following his first real lead, gleaned from a tweet meant for O'Meara, Desocarras is forced undercover when he identifies yet another victim and a high-ranking RCMP officer becomes his main suspect.   Praise for Blue Star (Previously published as End of Innocence) "Thoroughly brilliant book." Amazon reviewer "I loved the characters." Amazon reviewer "I loved the strong female lead, she persevered in tough times to come out stronger." Goodreads reviewer "… beautiful and dark" Amazon reviewer "… a West Coast Canadian mystery that kept me on the edge of my seat." Amazon reviewer
