Keep Her Safe by K.A. Tucker (audio)

Did Jackie's secret lead to her death?  Her son Noah is determined to find out.  He is given the task of delivering a bag of money to Grace, the daughter of his mom's former partner. Grace's dad died a disgraced police officer.  Noah and Grace try to figure out what really happened to their parents. Told in the alternating voices of Noah and Grace with interjections of the past from Jackie and Abe.  Will Damron and Robin Eller did a good job with the voices of Noah and Grace. Wendy Tremont King and Roger Casey narrated the voices of Jackie and Abe.  While I had a major secret figured out the story was enjoyable.
