Overview
A big thriller with an even bigger heart!” — Lisa Gardner, New York Times bestselling author
From USA Today bestselling author Joshua Moehling comes a tense, atmospheric thriller about one detective’s search for a mysterious killer in the chaos following a deadly storm…
A killer hides in the wreckage of a broken town…
It’s a hot, miserable summer in the small town of Sandy Lake. Detective Ben Packard has finally settled into life here—just in time for a tornado to sweep through the county, causing irreparable damage. Trees are felled, homes are destroyed, and people are desperate.
Hiding among the debris is someone with a secret.
When a mother who made enemies defending her bullied son is killed, the suspect list stretches across the entire town. For Packard, the case hits uncomfortably close to home. The deeper he digs, the more Sandy Lake hums with a tension that refuses to break.
As thick smoke from nearby wildfires chokes the air, someone from Packard’s past shows up on his doorstep without warning, forcing him to confront the reality of navigating life as a gay man in a small town bent on tradition, no matter the cost.
The heat suffocates. The violence simmers. Before the summer is out, someone else will die.
Review
It’s a hot, miserable summer in the small town of Sandy Lake. Detective Ben Packard has finally settled into life here—just in time for a tornado to sweep through the county, causing irreparable damage. Hiding among the debris is someone with a secret.
This is part of The Ben Packard series. I have never read any of these and I really need to rectify that! I enjoyed this one! This can be read as a stand alone.
Ben is a unique character. He is smart but he does not exude extreme toughness. This is appealing to me. He doesn’t throw his weight around but he sure uses his intellect!
Ben is working the murder of a mom in his small town. And then things start to fall apart around him with more murders. And then…this ending!!
Need a good murder mystery…THIS IS IT! Grab your copy today!
I received this novel from the publisher for a honest review.
