Southern Fraud Thriller

review 1: An abduction gone wrong & a mistaken identity cost the lives of people related to Julia Jackson's line of work. She's an insurance fraud investigator and it seemed like she may have pissed off some people with their insurance claims. With the help of hot and manly Safety & Personal Defense Specialist Mark Vincent, Julia needed to hide somewhere else to protect herself and her loved ones. It's no easy feat, but she had to do it. And what better way to feel more secure and safer than to hide in Vincent's sanctuary, right? I'm now a fan of Jennifer Becton! She actually had me wondering about the abductor throughout the story, although the excuse of an accomplice was a dead giveaway. I'm a big fan of mysteries and suspense reads, so I highly recommend Absolute Liability; it is... more an absolute read!
review 2: This is the first in a new mystery series and I look forward to reading the next entry.We meet Julia an insurance investigator for the Dept of Insurance in Georgia. And eventually we meet Vincent, another investigator who comes along to help "Jules". He will help her find out which of her fraud investigations might prompt someone to abduct her. Or to abduct someone they believed to be her.There is an arson investigation at a furniture store. The man suspected of that crime is a gun collector.There is an investigation into an accident at the sewage treatment plant. It appears that when that policy was first written there were issues that were overlooked in order to write the policy. There may have been a great deal of money involved in the deception.The people involved in either investigation do not appear to be the type to abduct anyone. And all the while, the young lady who was taken by mistake is still not found.This is a good mystery. Julia has a history of trying to solve an old crime that affected her family in a major way. She is a good investigator and when she has the chance to work with a partner like Vincent she feels that she becomes even more effective. The two of them make a good team.All the while there is the ongoing hope that the young woman will be found.I like this mystery. The author is new to me and I definitely feel she has done a good job of creating a plot that is interesting. The characters, including the secondary characters, are well rounded and complete. Slowly but surely we are getting to know who these people are and what is their motivation.If you like a well developed mystery, this will be a book you will enjoy. I did figure out the shadowy figure who was the bad guy before the end of the story, but it was still a page turner. less
