This mystery has been on my ebook shelf for a while. It's set on BC's Sunshine Coast where my sister-in-law lives. The first time we went I thought, this would be the perfect setting for a murder mystery. Turned out I was not the first to have that idea. 😉
A solid mystery, the killer is revealed on page 1. As the story unfolds, you follow RCMP staff sergeant Karl Alberg put it together. Good characters, good setting, good pace. Author was 👇

merelybookish Apparently was dubbed once Canada's ?? "Queen of Crime Fiction." (Pre-Louise Penny ?). Coincidentally, it's just been turned into a tv series: Murder in a Small Town. Anyhoo, always enjoy a mystery at Xmas time. Unfortunately meets no criteria for #ChristmasCrimeChallenge unless 1984 counts as historical. ? @RaeLovesToRead 5d
LeahBergen You‘ve just reminded me that I want to watch that series! I was talking about it with MY Sunshine Coast sister-in-law this summer. 😆 4d
merelybookish @LeahBergen Yes, curious to watch it now too! 4d

I haven't read this since it came out, but I remember finding it very thought-provoking and powerful.

A good book with a twisty ending! If you live in the Twin Cities of Minnesota, then you‘ll really like this book as it‘s chock full of place references. And the protagonist is a smart-aleck, so it‘s fun to read. If you don‘t know the Twin Cities, you‘ll learn a lot!

I really enjoyed this intriguing mystery, set in east Texas in the 1930's. The atmosphere and setting were perfect for this story. Harry is a great protagonist and I just loved getting to know him and his family. His relationship with his grandmother was just 🥺🥺😍
4.5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐💫

Pulled a book that has been on my shelf for a long time (one of my reading goals this year) and I love it! What took me so long?? #waybackbacklist #readinggoals #FelonyandMayhem #backlistbonanza

Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️
I thought it was an okay story. I didn‘t like the long dragged out parts of the survival story and I didn‘t like the ending. I do like how Ben was strong and proactive.
