Justice Betrayed By: Patricia Bradley

Back of the book

It's Elvis Week in Memphis, and homicide Detective Rachel Sloan isn't sure her day could get any stranger when aging Elvis impersonator Vic Vegas asks to see her. But when he produces a photo of her murdered mother with four Elvis impersonators--one of whom had also been murdered soon after the photo was taken--she's forced to reevaluate. Is there some connection between the two unsolved cases? And could the recent break-in at Vic's home be tied to his obsession with finding his friend's killer?

When yet another person in the photo is murdered, Rachel suddenly has her hands full investigating three cases. Lieutenant Boone Callahan offers his help, but their checkered romantic past threatens to get in the way. Can they solve the cases before the murderer makes Rachel victim number four?

My Thoughts

 Patricia Bradley has written some amazing plots over the years, but the plot in Justice Betrayed is one of the best.  I loved having the Elvis Impersonators involved and learning about their groupies, plus the culture behind Elvis week.  It truly took this novel to the next level.  Rachel Sloan was a hard character for me to get behind, because she always had a hidden plan and ideas.  On the other hand I loved Boone Callahan, and his straight forward, justice for all attitude.  

Justice Betrayed is an interesting, entertaining, and fun novel to read.  I cant wait to read it again.
