The Injustice of Valor
(2025)(The sixth book in the Valorie Dawes Thrillers series)
A novel by Gary Corbin
When a fanatical vigilante murders a handful of freed sex offenders, the police seem uninterested in finding the perp. But Val Dawes notices a deeper, darker pattern: the victims are all LGBTQ+. Then her closest friend on the force, a trans woman, suspiciously disappears.
When the bodies of freed sex offenders turn up with increasing regularity in western Connecticut, the Clayton Police Department responds with a disinterested yawn.
Second-year cop Val Dawes doesn't share the department's apparent indifference to the trend of vigilante justice. But her warnings fall on deaf ears, especially after her jealous rivals in the department get her suspended on a bogus assault charge.
Then her best friend in the department, a trans woman named Shelby, goes missing under suspicious circumstances.
Can Val find her friend before she, too, falls victim to a deranged vigilante?
