About the book

About The Defiant

After a serial killer in Kansas City wreaks havoc on Silas Albert's life, the homicide detective isn't sure he still wants to be a cop. He's tired of fighting the system, burdened by guilt, and terrified he's lost his edge. His own homicide unit doesn't trust him. He doesn't even trust himself-too many people died before he got his act together. But Silas can rely on a secret sisterhood of domestic abuse survivors called the Blackbirds and his tough-as-nails niece Lila Girard. When young girls disappear in a series of abductions, an old political enemy asks Silas for help. The request is suspicious to say the least. A vacation goes off the rails when a violent storm hits in the gentle hills of the Missouri Ozarks, and Silas finds himself deep in the backwoods, investigating crimes of domestic abuse, child trafficking, and a convenient drowning ... Or is it murder?
