School Shootings
This fifth book in the O'Malley series is about Rachel O'Malley, a trauma psychologist who works disasters for the Red Cross. During a flood, she works closely with Captain Cole Parker, a firefighter.
A murder scene is found and there is a link to a school shooting. I never really did understand what the school shooting was about, but then, most are senseles, aren't they?
Cole is sweet, and has obviously been in love with Rachel for a long time.
One of her sisters, Jennifer, who doesn't have a book of her own in this series, but has been sick for a long time, dies. Very touching, but not typical of how cancer patients die.
The issues of loss, fears and grief are explored with Jennifer's illness and death.
