Books like Ulterior motives by Terri Blackstock


Louis Dubose, an international art dealer, is found dead and the police focus on Ben Robinson, who was dismissed by Dubose and whose name is linked to the crime by compelling evidence. Ben insists on his innocence, yet one person knows him too well to accept the verdict. She believes Ben could do no harm, yet her own sharp accusation may be nearly as deadly as murder. She faces a choice: trust her knowledge of Ben, or risk her own safety in the pursuit of truth. The plot centers on two almost‑kidnapped victims whose freedom may hinge on uncovering who truly killed Dubose. "Ulterior Motives" is the third book in Terri Blackstock’s Sun Coast Chronicles, blending legal intrigue, rapid action, and a thematic exploration of forgiveness, faith and the shadow of evil.
