Book Description, Modified from Goodreads:
When two Jane Does are killed on the outskirts of Atlanta, Georgia, detective and behavioral specialist Avery North discovers they share something in common--a tattoo of a magnolia on their shoulders. Suspecting a serial killer, Avery joins forces with medical examiner Jackson Bryant to solve the crimes and prevent another murder. But it doesn't take long for them to realize that there is much more to the case than meets the eye. As they venture deep into a sinister world of human trafficking, Avery and Jackson are taken to the very edge of their abilities--and their hearts.


My Review:
Dangerous Passage is a Christian romantic suspense novel. The romance was more "we'll see what happens after this craziness is over" than something developed in this book. The heroine didn't have enough time to meet all of the demands on her life, and she was concerned that she didn't have time to add yet another demand in the form of a serious boyfriend. I was irritated that her family kept pushing her to date while dismissing this concern, and they certainly didn't offer to drop their demands on her so that she had time to date.

I liked the characters, and they were fairly well-developed. The mystery involved human trafficking and murder (among other things), and the heroine was driven to solve things before more people die. The suspense mainly came from the physical danger. The Christian element was the heroine dealing with so much evil and death yet maintaining her faith in God. There were no sex scenes or bad language. Overall, I'd recommend this suspenseful novel.
