After Kelsey read the Houston Sentinel obit on William Summers, she informs her mother, Houston Police of Chief Catherine Tanner that he was murdered. He was the one who met her dad Jordon a year ago to discuss missing Yellowcake uranium from a warehouse because the newspaper's numbers were wrong. Kelsey's comment along with the cop who headed the investigation being corrupt make Catherine wonders if Jordon's death may have been murder. If she is right than she has no idea who to trust on her force because higher ups had to be involved with the uranium depletion. Knowing she cannot do this alone, but not sure who to trust on the force, Catherine turns to former officer Jeff Rowan for help though she expects him to say no. She fired him last year for evidence tampering while the media fried him as a racist. She offers him a chance to get even on the cop who ruined him. Wanting to say no Jeff accepts Catherine the civilian as a client. Neither is prepared to where the inquiries or their hearts will take them. A MOTHER'S VOW, the sixth Women in Blue police romance, is a fabulous tale that answers many of the questions surfaced by the earlier novels, especially the first few. The story line is action-packed, but more a private investigative story than a police procedural as Jeff follows the clues including to a surprising climax. Though why Jeff instead of her five friends is not clear, readers will appreciate this fine conclusion to a strong series written by six authors who kept the quality at the top throughout.
