For good or for evil...the inside story: On a sultry midsummer's night, while a full moon bathed the hazy Gulf Coast, a riptide was forming...pulling all caught in its path into the fury of the foaming sea. The noble Hampton family, with its legacy of sin and scandal, suffers the ultimate tragedy --- the ruthless murder of one of their own. The heiress to the Hampton fortune is dead, and there are only two people who can unravel the case: Jake Seringo, the cynical homicide detective who grew up on the mean streets of life, and Claire Connelly, the beautiful but aloof broadcast journalist Jake had once called his own. They'd parted years ago on explosive terms. Now, they are on the trail of a shocking family secret that could topple a dynasty. But will their search for truth and glory reunite them forever --- or utterly destroy them both, along with their second chance at love?
"Glory Seekers is an intriguing romantic who-done-it that should prove to most readers that Rebecca Brandewyne is one of the best writers of romantic suspense on the market today. The lead characters are both superb players struggling to find a niche that will allow them to share a future together. The storyline is a well-written murder mystery that engulfs a decadent, upper-crust lifestyle. Fans of who-done-its and romantic suspense will devour this classy tale." ---Harriet Klausner for Painted Rock Reviews on Glory Seekers

"Rejoice all you lovers of Jane Austen! She lives again in the prose of Rebecca Brandewyne, although this time around, her hero, heroine, and villains are trendy and topical....This book has an interesting, complicated plot structure. If you savor every written word, then this book is a must." ---The Romance Reader on Glory Seekers
"Ms. Brandewyne tells a captivating story, masterfully blending past and present....Glory Seekers is a very exciting read." ---Romantic Times on Glory Seekers
"Very highly recommended. The plot takes many twists and turns...the characters are well drawn. In some ways, Glory Seekers doesn't feel like your typical romance with such a strong suspense element, but it is. Romantic suspense, maybe in the Nora Roberts school. However, Brandewyne does something that I haven't seen Roberts do. The ending. It is a 'lady or the tiger' ending, and it is very effective. Pick this one up. It's worth it." ---Under the Covers on Glory Seekers
