A forensic psychologist must clear a young woman of murder in this romantic suspense mystery by a New York Times–bestselling author of Broken Bonds.
Every case that Claire Britten cracks is a win, not only professionally but personally. The forensic psychologist has spent a lifetime fighting a neurological disorder, and her ability to conquer it is a testament to her razor-sharp intuition.
Nick Markwood is used to winning in the courtroom, so when his latest case is overthrown by Claire's expert testimony, he can't help being impressed by her skill. He needs her on the team of his passion project—investigating unusual cases involving mysterious deaths. Her condition doesn't deter him, and neither does the attraction that sparks between them . . . even if it should.
As they join forces to investigate a murder in St. Augustine, Florida, Claire is thrust into a situation far more dangerous than she'd anticipated, pushing her disorder to a breaking point. Just when she fears she can't trust her own mind, she discovers Nick's personal connection to the case—and wonders whether she can trust anyone at all.
"Chasing Shadows will most likely keep all readers guessing, and when your mind is made up as to who's who and who did what, you'll probably be wrong. It's a story that will keep you on your toes, as author Karen Harper keeps the action and mystery going at full throttle right up to the very last chapter." —SuspenseMagazine

      Intent on getting her fledgling firm, Clear Path, off the ground, Florida-based certified fraud examiner, forensic psychologist, and single mom Claire Britten can't resist an offer from high-powered attorney Nick Markwood. Nick needs to sort out a possible murder, even though it means being 300 miles from home on an isolated estate near St. Augustine while still healing from a bullet wound. Enchanting and mysterious, tree-shrouded Shadowlawn is aptly named, and with its ghosts, legends, and unexplained happenings, this thriller has a definite gothic vibe. A colorful assortment of characters (including a watchful ex-husband), vivid descriptions, and a sensitive, informed discussion of the debilitating disease narcolepsy add realism and depth to a story that is as chilling as it is complex. A hard-driving, superobservant heroine and an attorney on a dangerous mission fight their growing attraction as they bring a killer to heel. VERDICT This fascinating tale is more suspense than romance, but is will attract fans of both. A surprise cliff-hanger will leave fans eager for the next in the series, Drowning Tides. Harper (The Royal Nanny) divides her time between Columbus, OH, and Naples, FL.
