Michael Keane's stressful days as a Columbus police officer are done. He's ready to relax into his new position as deputy sheriff in his sleepy hometown. Nothing ever happens in Hidden Springs, Kentucky--and that's just fine with Michael.
Nothing, that is, until a dead body is discovered on the courthouse steps. As Michael works to solve the case, it seems that every nosy resident in town has a theory. When the sheriff insists Michael check out one of these harebrained theories, his surprising discovery sends him on a bewildering search for a mysterious killer that has him questioning everything he has ever believed about life in Hidden Springs.
I found this book a little slow to get going, but once it did, it was a page turner. I didn't guess who did it until a way's through the book. When it was revealed who did the murder it all made sense. This is the first book in the "Hidden Springs Mystery," series and I am looking forward to reading the next one.
Michael's aunt is a great character, as is Michael. I love the small town feel to this book and how everyone knows everyone and everything. I could see why Michael came back to live in Hidden Springs.
Stars out of 5 : 4.5 Other than the slow start I think this book was great and one of the better ones written by this author. Well worth the read; with enough mystery to keep you wanting more.
