    About this ebook

    Northern California’s elite Police K9 Units arrive at an abandoned warehouse after a high-speed chase and apprehend two killers after they have fled a grisly murder scene. This barely scratches the surface of a bloody trail from a prolific serial killer that leads to unlocking the insidious secrets of one family’s history, while tearing a police department apart.

    Jack Davis, a top K9 cop with an unprecedented integrity, finds himself falling for a beautiful murder suspect and struggling with departmental codes. He and his loyal four-legged partner, Keno, are thrown into the clutches of lies and deception.

    Megan O’Connell, a website designer recluse that suffers from agoraphobia and can’t leave the safety of her home, finds herself the prime suspect in her sister’s murder.

    Everyone is a suspect. Everyone has a secret. Someone else must die to keep the truth buried forever. Silent Partner is a suspense ride along that will keep you guessing until the bitter end.

      When author Jennifer Chase contacted me about reading her latest book Silent Partner I was delighted. I'm a fan of this genre and always enjoy sinking my teeth into a good crime thriller. When Megan O'Connell was just a child, she and her sister Teresa witnessed her father brutally murder their mother in their own home. Since then the girls were raised by their grandparents.Now Megan suffers from agoraphobia and is barely able to leave her home. When her sister Teresa is brutally murdered in their shared home, Megan is a suspect. Officer Jack Davis works for the Monterey County Police Dept in California. His partner is a police canine named Keno. Jack and Megan are childhood friends and ex-lovers reunited once again due to the tragic events in Megan's life. When Jack sees Megan again after five years of separation, he realizes he still has feelings for her. He doesn't want to leave her side and hopes to help her through this difficult time in her life. Darrell Brooks is a psycho killer who has been evading the police for some time. This sick man has his own motives for going after Megan.When events take a turn for the worse, Megan begins to question her own sanity. With plot twists and turns, interesting characters and a surprise ending, Silent Partner made for a great read. The ending gave me chills. I liked Jack's character the most. He is your classic 'good guy'. I enjoyed the role the dogs played in the story. I hadn't expected dogs to be an important part of the book, it was a nice surprise. You really get to see how these officers had a strong connection to their dogs.All in all, Silent Partner is a face paced thriller, I read it in one sitting. I really had to know what was going to happen next. Special thanks to author Jennifer Chase.

    • 3/5
      First Line: The rain stopped abruptly on the thirty-sixth consecutive day of torrential downpours.A prolific serial killer is leaving a bloody trail that will unlock one family's secrets while it tears a police department apart. Jack Davis, a K9 cop, finds himself falling in love with a suspect. Megan O'Connell, an agoraphobic, is the prime suspect in her sister's murder. Psychopath Darrell Brooks is on a mission to drive Megan insane. Everyone is a suspect. Everyone has a secret. If the truth is going to remain buried, someone is going to have to die.Silent Partner is a fast-paced roller coaster ride with a surprising climax. I really enjoyed reading about crime fighting from the point of view of the police K9 units. It's something that I hope Chase continues in future books.Chase also shows a talent for characterization. The bad guy, Darrell Brooks, aroused so much disgust in me that I wanted Keno and all his other four-legged buddies on the force to tackle him and chew on him for a long time. Even one of the victims who lasts for only a page or two is drawn with poignancy: "She eyed the stash. Her friend Tiffany was going to be so jealous. Maybe this guy was going to be her Richard Gere from Pretty Woman, she thought hopefully to herself."As much as I enjoyed the characters and the story, I feel that the book needed more proof-reading and more editing. It's a rare book these days that isn't published with at least one glitch, but Silent Partner had more than its fair share. The tendency towards sentence fragments repeatedly threw me out of the story and interrupted the pace of the narrative. Like this one: " Darrell emerged from the other end of the alley kicking an empty whiskey bottle as he rounded the corner. Feeling better, relaxed, and wanted to get back to the anonymity of his car."Or this example: " Detective Preston sat annoyed at her desk, cluttered with a mountain of paperwork. Eyes sunken, weary from the lack of sleep. Stuck with endless paperwork, glued to her desk without a break in seven hours."I like the occasional sentence fragment; I use them myself. However, too many can break the flow of reading-- almost like a case of the hiccups.Regardless of whether these things bother you, too, as a reader, Silent Partner is a fast, action-packed read with a K9 cop, Jack Davis, and his four-legged partner, Keno, at the heart of an engaging story. I will be keeping an eye on author Jennifer Chase.
