Diversion: A Probation Case Files Mystery (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798898201777)

Phoenix probation officer Casey Carson could use a change of scenery to clear her head and make some major life decisions. When the opportunity arises to take on a side job wrangling juvenile delinquents on a wilderness adventure for a diversion program, she's skeptical. But she wants to support her cousin, a counselor. The extra cash in her pocket sweetens the deal.

Unfortunately, one of Casey's clients-an escaped murderer after one of her charges-threatens to upend her plans. Facing wildfire, flash floods and an angry mountain lion are nothing compared to the murderous intentions in store for one of the kids.

On a crash course with the killer and with her faithful pup Felony by her side, Casey desperately tries to lead the group to safety. She doesn't realize that her two love interests, ex-husband Betz, and hunky ex-neighbor, Marcus, are frantically looking for the group. Casey must utilize every negotiating skill she possesses to not fail, or she'll lose all she holds dear.
