Tyranny Begins (Where Law Ends, Tyranny Begins)

Charleston Police Detective Audrey Durant loves the chase. Not the cat-and-mouse, sit-back-and-wait pursuit, but the American Revolutionary War tactics of General Francis Marion -- strike at night, then vanish into the swamp. So when assigned to investigate the murder of attorney Jeremy Wade, Audrey readies herself for a guerilla-style hunt. Wade had cloaked the truth behind veils of disguise, obscuring his life with private trickery and leaving even his closest friends and relations in the dark. He had finessed his way into a position of influence, scaling the barrier that, more often than not, keeps the less mighty out. Faced with the challenge, Audrey launches an incursion to uncover the secrets that Wade had used to catapult himself from obscurity into the world of the powerful. What she discovers puts her in an ethical dilemma and in need of a Swamp Fox offensive. In Tyranny Begins, heroine Audrey Durant unscrambles the covert life of Jeremy Wade, drawing on her fascination with South Carolina's colorful history and, along the way, finding echoes and clues from the past in the realities and characters of the current-day case.
