Book Description, Modified from Goodreads:
When the daughter of a high-profile businessman disappears from an exclusive girls' boarding school, police detective Cate Reilly is tapped for an undercover assignment. It doesn't take her long to realize that beneath the veneer of polish and wealth, things are not as they seem at Ivy Hill Academy. But the biggest surprise of all? The only man she ever loved is also working at the school.

Zeke Sloan has never forgotten Cate, but now isn't the best time for their paths to cross again. When their two seemingly disparate agendas begin to intertwine--and startling connections emerge among the players--the danger escalates significantly. But who is the mastermind behind the elaborate ruse? And how far will they go?


My Review:
Labyrinth of Lies is a Christian romantic suspense novel. It's the second book in a new series, but it works as a stand-alone novel. The main characters were engaging, complex people who reacted realistically to events. I cared about what happened to them. The suspense was created by the increasing level of physical danger to Cate and Zeke. They shared information that each found when investigating their different cases. They both still loved each other, but Zeke had to explain why he'd chosen undercover work over marriage to Cate in the past and rebuild her trust in him. There was no sex or bad language. Overall, I'd recommend this enjoyable, exciting novel.
