Save Me From Dangerous Men by S.A. Lelchuk

Nikki Griffin is a private detective. She also owns a bookstore and practices her own brand of vigilantism against men who abuse women. She is hired by Silicon Valley CEO Gregg Gunn to follow an employee Gunn believes is stealing information from the company. As Nikki observes the employee, Karen Li, she notices that Karen acts more like someone who is scared rather than an errant employee. Soon, Nikki is involved in something that puts her in great danger--and she knows that she has limited time to figure out the puzzle of what Gunn is really involved in before people lose their lives. Save Me From Dangerous Men is the debut of a new series and doesn't disappoint--an intriguing main character, engaging story and a solid sense of place. I can't wait for the second book when it's published in the spring.
