Carolina Slade is a smart, fun character. Seems she will always be getting herself into trouble. Love anything about SC Lowcountry.

Slade lives with a man she hates for 12 years. Hmmm. It is one thing for a marriage to be unhappy or dull or failing, but to put up with the arguments and hateful sarcasm and continue to sleep in the same bed when she hates him for 12 years? Parts of the story were interesting, but the parts about almost everyone from the USDA to the IG to the police being dishonest, callous, or incompetent made it unrealistic. The quick romance didn't help, and Wayne's willingness to leave Slade hanging in dangerous situations didn't make her choices seem to be improving.
