Detective Inspector Kate Redman has faced down some of the most dangerous criminals in Abbeyford, but after a year away from the force on maternity leave, she isn't sure if she's ready to return. When a troubled young man is found murdered, with links to the violent world of gangland crime, Kate is (semi) reluctantly pulled back into the field.

But it's not just the investigation weighing on Kate's mind. Out of the blue, her long-adopted child makes contact with her. The reappearance stirs up unresolved emotions and forces Kate to confront a part of her past she's tried hard to forget. As the investigation intensifies, the renewed connection with her child raises painful questions about family, trust, and forgiveness.

Torn between solving a murder and navigating the delicate, unpredictable path of reconciling with her child, Kate must find a way to bring justice to the victim without losing herself in the process…

Mercy is the 17th in the USA Today bestselling series, The Kate Redman Mysteries, by author Celina Grace.

Praise for the Kate Redman Mysteries series, from readers:

"Celina Grace gives us not only an unusual and well-built plot, but also a story which talks about too often forgotten humanity... Personal and choral human dramas intersect in a mystery that will keep you glued to the page until the end as it did for me."

"I love the Kate Redman series. At this point, I feel like the characters are old friends and have been through many life changes with them. Celina Grace is a masterful story teller with the ability to set the scenes in such a way that the reader can see them exactly. "

"One of the best I have read this year. I read about a fourth of the book early in the day, then at bedtime, I thought I would read a bit more before sleep. I finished the book at 5:20 AM. Just could not put it down."

"At last, a mystery that delivers…I found this novel superb because I got all I needed to know and none of what I didn't."

"…a gripping detective story but the main character engages you, and as well as wanting to know how the mystery turns out you want to learn more about her too."

"…amazing book, read it front to back in one visit, couldn`t help myself…"
