Because You're Mine - Miller, Luna

Résumé :
A story of secrets, lies, betrayal, contempt, and blind rage. Gunvor Str?m, a Swedish surgeon who had to retire because her hands weren?t steady enough to perform operations, accepts a position as a private detective and enters a new and surprisingly dangerous career.

For the most part, the author also deftly handles this first installment of her new series...
