This was my first book (on kindle) by Cliff Black. I found myself compelled to continue reading this story chapter after chapter. It was also easy reading although not a light subject to focus on.Daniel corbin is a 39 yo mathmatics teacher at Fort Lewis College in Durango. Although being a P.I. is only a sideline it appears to have taken over most of his life. Camille, Daniel's wife, died of cancer nearly a year ago. Natasha, his daughter, lives with him p.t. while attending classes at Ft. Lewis College. His current case came to him after purchasing his streamline trailer now situated in a trailer park.While asleep one evening an intruder breaks into his trailer thinking it to be abandoned. Daniel hears the intruder rummaging around as if looking for something. Daniel reports the incident to the Sheriff and to his close friend, Ezzy Miller. He still can't understand why anyone would think there was something to steal in such a poor trailer. Then daniel tries replacing some lights in the ceiling and that's when this case actually starts. From the ceiling microfilm falls down on Daniel which later turns out to birth certificates. Birth certificates for two babies with the same birth date, January 1980. But are they two babies or are they one in the same.This case brings Daniel in contact with the McLaughlins who raised their grand-daughter, Cherish, until she was 16 yo. She was then taken from them by her father(?). They want her back but where to turn. The grand-mother turns to Daniel. Between Natasha's computer skills and Daniel's perseverance...a search begins. Does this case have anything to do with illegal adoption?I gave this story 3 stars. I also appreciated not having profanity or immoral activity in the story.
