A Gathering Storm - Dora Ellison Mystery Book 2 - Paperback

A brutal murder. A rising body count. And a relentless heroine caught in the crosshairs of a deadly criminal empire.

Councilwoman Agatha Raines’s brother vanishes after a quiet family gathering—and hours later, his body is found savagely beaten in a drug-ridden alley. The police have questions, but none more urgent than Dora Ellison’s: who wanted Jesse Burrell dead… and why?

Still reeling from the events of Not Today, Dora juggles life at the police academy with an unofficial investigation that quickly turns deadly. Her instincts are sharp, her resolve unbreakable—but she doesn’t play by the rules, and that makes her dangerous.

As she digs deeper, Dora uncovers a chain of criminals—each more powerful and more ruthless than the last. Then one of them turns up dead, and the killer sets their sights on Dora and her partner, the whip-smart librarian Missy Winters.

With a cold-blooded assassin closing in, and a kingpin determined to silence her for good, Dora must risk everything to expose the truth. Can she stop a killer before she becomes the next target?

Fans of Lee Child, Karin Slaughter, and James Patterson will love this fast-paced, emotionally charged mystery thriller.
