Taciturn Acquiescence

Dog and Spider Private Investigations, Book 1

A child goes missing under the watch of wealth and distinction, and her mother finds no help from the forces of law and order. The only chance at saving the child from tragedy is in the form of two strangers, a man and woman haunted by the dark afflictions of their own lives. Thrust together by these events, can they raise themselves up in time to save her before she is shattered by an unspeakable fate? When the dust settles, will they find the light of hope in each other's hearts? Or will the darkness swallow them all?

Taciturn Acquiescence is the first book in the Dog and Spider Investigations series and is a prologue, an introduction to a world if you will. The mood roller coasters from funny to sexy to downright bleak as we follow the titular Dog and Spider from the moment they finally speak until the end of their first case.
