Concrete Evidence by DiAnn Mills

On the family’s Brazos River Ranch in Texas, Avery Elliott helps run her grandfather’s commercial construction business. Raised by Senator Elliott, Avery has never doubted her grandfather is the man of integrity and faith she’s always believed him to be . . . until the day she finds him standing with a gun over the body of a dead man. To make matters worse, Avery’s just discovered a billing discrepancy for materials supposedly purchased for construction of the Lago de Cobre Dam.
Desperate for answers, Avery contacts FBI Special Agent Marc Wilkins for help. As Marc works to identify the dead man Avery saw, threats toward Avery create a fresh sense of urgency to pinpoint why someone wants to silence her. With a hurricane approaching the Texas coast and the structural integrity of the Lago de Cobre Dam called into question, time is running out to get to the bottom of a sinister plot that could be endangering the lives of not only Avery and her loved ones but the entire community.

Roxanne C.
I enjoy romantic suspense because mystery was my favorite genre as a youngster, and then I discovered romance as a teen. Romantic suspense is a great blend of both for me. My favorite books by DiAnn Mills are her Texas Legacy series because as an adult my favorite genre is now historical.
Deena Adams
Hey, Roxanne. Mystery was my favorite as a child too. Specifically, the Nancy Drew Mysteries. I followed that up with romance novels as a teen as well. I was happy to find Christian Fiction about thirty years ago.
DiAnn Mills
Hi Roxanne
Thank you for your kind words. So glad you enjoyed the Texas Legacy Series!
Jeanette Davis
First Happy Birthday Deena!!!!
DiAnn I am so sorry about your son. It is a very hard thing to lose a child.
Thank you Deena and DiAnn for this interview. Love the zoom, feels more personal. I just love how your husband came beside you and encouraged you to write, what a loving, sweet man. I have not read any of your books but will be looking at my library for your books!
If I am choosen to win this book, I would love either a paperback or a hardcover.
Deena Adams
Thanks for your birthday wishes, Jeanette! I really enjoy the Zoom interviews too. It’s easier to feel connected and get to know the authors. Thanks so much for watching and joining the conversation! Good luck in the giveaway. 🙂
DiAnn Mills
Hi Jeanette, thank you for your encouragement. Glad you enjoyed the interview.
