Elaine Williams Crockett has written a political thriller full of intrigue, suspense, and plenty of twists and turns. Do Not Ask is an excellent book and a great read. We are introduced to an exciting new character, Warren Alexander, by day a Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court, by night, a crime-fighting former FBI Special Agent. He works to solve the crime of the disappearance of the President’s twin daughters, while sitting on the bench and being investigated himself for a crime that he didn’t commit. He is an exciting new protagonist and I look forward to reading more stories featuring him. The book is full of political intrigue. From a technical perspective, Crockett has a masterful control of dialogue and her characters are true to life. The book has plenty of twisty subplots that really keep things interesting. The sex ranges from the romantic to the cringe-worthy, but is always relevant and presented appropriately. Crockett keeps you turning the pages in this excellently crafted thriller. I look forward to reading more!

Do Not Ask thriller review
As the synopsis says the President's daughters come up missing. They live a wild life, so it's hard to say what might have happened. Later their bodies are found on the estate of a supreme court judges daughter's home. Her husband is the obvious suspect, but he was on a plane for China at the time of death. So an old black servant who has worked for Reed's husband's family is the man who is arrested for the murders. But Reed and Davis are positive he wouldn't hurt anyone, and he's 78 years old. Meanwhile the Judge's assistant comes up missing also, her body is also found in Reed's mansion. A lot of investigation goes on, even the judge himself become suspect, since the 3rd girl dead works for him and was soon to be taking a job with his son in law. The judge's biggest concern is his daughter, and his own reputation. He knows his son in law is a cheat, but is he a murderer? I gave this story 5 stars because I couldn't figure out who was guilty. Most mystery thrillers are easy to solve but this one had many twist and turns. There was layer upon layer of story, and many suspects. I hate it when I know who the killer is from almost page 1 so this was refreshing. I was given this book in exchange for a fair honest review. All opinions are solely my own and have no ill intent towards the author, publisher or promoters of this book. I did see a few minor issues but they didn't take away from the story.
