Amanda's Dragonfly. A Legal Crime Thriller with a Slow-Burn Romance (en Inglés) - Alexi Venice

A high-profile murder trial ignites a war between the District Attorney’s office and the Italian mafia.



District Attorney Amanda Hawthorne is preparing to prosecute the murder of a hospital employee and the attempted killing of a physician when the case begins to escalate beyond the courtroom. Witnesses disappear. Threats multiply. Violence follows close behind.



As the pressure mounts, Amanda’s personal life becomes increasingly exposed. Her relationship with ER physician Jen Dawson is tested as the danger moves closer to home, and safety is no longer guaranteed. When Jen’s ex, Detective Tommy Vietti, resurfaces with unfinished business tying all three of them together, old loyalties and unresolved tensions complicate an already volatile case.



With lives at risk and the judicial system less than satisfactory, Amanda must decide whether to take justice into her own hands and what lines she is prepared to cross to protect the people she loves.



Amanda’s Dragonfly is the second book in The San Francisco Mystery Series, blending legal and crime thrillers with high-stakes danger and a slow-burn, character-driven sapphic romance.
