Detective Joe Breda is assigned to the case, and asks Miranda to use her expertise to help find the killer. As connections are made to previous cases, Miranda and Joe find their attraction to each other difficult to resist.

Flight is a good addition to The Texas Murder Files series with a dandy mystery and two likable protagonists. A large percentage of the story is focused on the mystery and side characters who are part of the investigation or are suspects, taking away from the romance. There is an impersonal detachment that makes it tough to connect with the characters or feel any emotion. However, the mystery takes a twist near the end that creates a satisfying conclusion. Overall, Flight is an entertaining novel but offers nothing unique to grab the readers' attention… (altro)
