The Case of the Sad Sons by Felita Daniels Book Review

I have said this before, but one of the great things about being a reader is discovering new authors. Facebook is a great place for this to happen! This is where I stumbled across Ms. Daniels who graciously gifted me a copy of her book, “The Case of the Sad Sons.” Had it not been for that chance encounter, I would not know of the existence of her book. 

This is a tale about Locke Industries who believes their company is being embezzled from, but they don’t know by whom or how or why. They decided to have this further investigated and hired Laura Anthony and her team from The Anthony Group to investigate. There are two crimes committed … the reasons and the people involved are quite surprising. There is one “secret” hidden in this book that came as quite a shock. 

Ms. Daniels has created a family in Charles (the dad), Martin (the oldest son), and Terrance (the younger son, a Marine who just came back home eight months ago). Each has their strengths and their flaws. Then, there are the folks who make up The Anthony Group. Laura Anthony, the owner, is a strong female role yet she has taken her share of hard knocks which is probably why she is tough yet compassionate. Tommy is her computer geek whom she has taken under her wing to give him skills to help him succeed if he decides to branch out on his own. Mark is the ex-cop who rents an office from Laura and works for her upon occasion. He’s like her big brother. Finally, there is Ginger who is a former attorney working for Laura, but she keeps them on the legal side of things, even if that side is gray at times. Not to mention the other secondary characters interspersed, each playing their own unique role in the telling of this tale.
