Lieutenant Jack Bergman and his squad continue working non-stop to close a multitude of cold cases that have been transferred by headquarters. Amid personal turmoil, a lack of cohesion and long hours, Jack must manage his time so that he can not only work the cases and bring justice for the victims' families but mentor and train his young squad in an attempt to create a fully functional team of master criminalists. The long hours are taking their toll on him, however and the stress of the job coupled with the pressure from his family for more time has Jack in a state of exhaustion. Chasing pedophiles, murderers and kidnappers, Jack and the squad must use every weapon in their arsenal to solve the crimes and close the cases as quickly as possible. The victims in these cases span the lifecycle from very young children to elderly dementia sufferers and the perpetrators have been able to allude discovery and think they've gotten away with their crimes. Will Jack's keen intellect and cunning insights into the criminal mind be enough to find them before they escape? Inherent Valor takes the reader on a first person thrill ride from start to finish as it feels as if you are working the case alongside Jack and his squad until each one is concluded.
