Evaluating trace evidence is her job…
When Sierra Byrd’s father needs a kidney transplant, despite her parents’ protest claiming they could never ask for her help, Sierra insists on being tested for the transplant. But when results prove it is physically impossible for her father to be her biological father, her family finally confesses their long-held secret. She was conceived in an affair her mother had the summer before her parents’ wedding. The man she’d come to know as father is named on her birth certificate, but he truly isn’t her father.
But the job just turned personal.
Shocked and hurt, Sierra goes in search of her biological father in the small coastal town where he owns a property management business. But when she arrives in town to find her father has recently disappeared, and she starts asking questions, FBI Agent Reed Rice delivers her second shock in as many days. Her father is wanted for embezzling money from the properties he manages. Despite the evidence staring her in the face, Sierra holds out hope that her father isn’t the criminal that Reed believes him to be. But as Sierra’s desperate search for the truth unearths long-buried secrets and she runs into dead end after dead end, she ignites a killer’s fury, and suddenly her own life is on the line.

Summary
Dead End By Susan Sleeman is book three in the Truth Seekers series
Sierra finds out that the man who raised her is not her biological father. As she runs of to meet her biological father she finds out he is missing. The scene where Reed meets her for the first time was one of my favorites. Sierra calls in her friends at Veritas to help her find her biological father who is suspected of embezzling by the FBI.
The author must have done a lot of research for the book as there was a lot of information about trace evidence and what Sierra did for a living. There were a lot of questions as to what was going on and who was involved. I thoroughly enjoy this series and how the team works together to solve crimes. I truly did not know how the book was going to end.
Reed is an FBI agent who is working the case. I really like his character. He was a good guy and interested in her work. He is ready to settle down and have a family that he never had. She is hesitant to lose herself in a relationship.
I received an ARC and was not required to write a positive review.
