What another awesome story in this fabulous series, MS Nefri Clark has such an imagination to think up all of these mysteries in the small town of Kingfisher Falls and getting sleuth “Detective Charlotte” helping the love of her life police office Trevor Sibbritt, but she often gets herself in predicaments that Trevor needs to save her from he is such a hero, if you love a good who-dun-it mystery then this is the series to pick up.
Things seemed to be settling down in town, until a fire and a death, Charlotte is sure that it was not an accident and when she starts investigating she finds that the council and its leaders are again up to no good and with ex policeman Sid Browne and his wife moving back to town and him becoming and annoyance to Charlotte again she is sure he is involved as well.
Charlotte feels that she is being watched by a woman who looks like someone from her past which sets her on pins and needles, there is also a new person moved into town a sculptor who is opening up a new business and Charlotte is concerned for who this person is and who she thinks is watching her are they one in the same. There is a lot going on and with it looking like a loved local is being framed Charlotte and Rosie (Trevor’s Mum) pull out all stops with investigating to help solve the mystery.
Trevor is working hard with the help of Katrina and Bryce detectives sent to help, to catch a murderer and bring the culprits in, they are hitting a few brick walls here and there and Charlotte is more than happy to help, Trevor worries about the danger she often puts herself in but is always appreciative of her help, but when Charlotte’s life is on the line Trevor is there as always.
This story is so well written the characters are amazing and are really my friends now I am turning the pages as fast as I can but savouring every word in the story. I love Charlotte and her vulnerability and the way that Trevor and Rosie are always there for her, she finally feels like she has a family, and maybe that will be added to. A fabulous story I loved it so much and am looking forward to more in the series.
I highly recommend this book and series MS Nefri Clark writes awesome stories, you would not be sorry when you picked up any of her books, must read stories thank you for another excellent story.
