About the Tracy Crosswhite series
Robert Dugoni's Tracy Crosswhite novels are intelligent, emotionally grounded Seattle-set thrillers. Tracy is a homicide detective whose career was forged by personal tragedy — the unsolved murder of her younger sister — which gives her a fierce empathy for victims and a relentless drive for the truth.
Dugoni blends procedural rigour with strong character work and courtroom tension, and Tracy's pursuit of justice in both her cases and her own family's cold case gives the series real emotional weight.
The personal arc, especially around her sister, builds across the books, so reading in order from "My Sister's Grave" is recommended.
