Book Review: Dangerous Illusions by Irene Hannon

I have really developed a love for Irene Hannon's books after having read several.  She does a wonderful job of dangling the carrot in front of our nose, but never letting us get too close to grabbing it :) Dangerous Illusions is the first in the Code of Honor series. 



Trish Bailey is overworked, dealing with heartache and trying to help her mother. When her mom dies and it's discovered that it was due to an overdose of her medication Trish is destroyed. She is the one that sets up her mother's meds each week and wonders if with all she's been dealing with she killed her mother accidentally.  Detective Flynn is investigating the case and wonders if Trish made a horrible mistake or did she have other motives. Money is usually motive number one, but in this families case all the money goes to the charitable foundation her family has run. Trish had no desire to harm her mother, but did someone else? As Detective Flynn investigates there are many twists and turns in the story.  Did Trish do it? Did their accountant, Matt Parker have anything to do with it? Money doesn't seem to be the obvious motive here due to the charity, but sometimes the answers are right in front of us and we never even see them.  Irene has done a great job of helping us to truly know the characters, but to not so easily know the answer to the murder until the very end.  


** I received this book free from Revell for my honest review.
