\n\tThe Story Behind the Story.\n<\/p>\n
\n\t \n<\/p>\n
\n\tJustice at Dawn<\/em> is the third novel in the Stolen Lives Trilogy. An International Retrieval Organization (IRO) agent in the first novel, Weep in the Night<\/em>, is highlighted in the second, and an agent in Day of Reckoning<\/em> is highlighted in the third. I always knew I wanted to tell Cooper’s story after his brief appearance in the second novel. How did he get his scar? Why was he one-track minded in his work? Why was he single?\n<\/p>\n \n\t \n<\/p>\n \n\tIt is always exciting to create a backstory for a character. To uncover his fears, his shattered dreams, his greatest desire for the future, and discover how those events shaped his personality and his present life.\n<\/p>\n \n\t \n<\/p>\n \n\tOf course I had to create a heroine worthy of Cooper’s attention. I hope I don’t offend any authors when I say this, but in my opinion, there are enough novels where the heroine is petite, helpless, always concerned about her perfect makeup. So…my heroine in Justice at Dawn<\/em> is anything but petite or helpless, and she has a unique backstory. Now, don’t get me wrong, KC is vulnerable and has issues from her past she has to overcome, too, but she is the perfect foil for Cooper.\n<\/p>\n \n\tAvailable Now!\n<\/p>\n \n\tJustice at Dawn by Valerie Massey Goree\n<\/p>\n \n\t
