In the quaint town of Hart's Ridge, Deputy Taylor Gray is a force to be reckoned with.

As she delves deeper into the investigation, Taylor discovers that even the most idyllic towns have their secrets. But this time, the stakes are higher than ever before. With a true crime element woven into the narrative, the search for Molly's missing mother becomes a race against time to stop a predator before it's too late.

Ms B I love mysteries

Ended too short
I wanted to know what happened with the detective who took credit for/ did
Apologize, did she get a chance to tell how she felt

Easy listen

I liked the story but wanted a better ending for the little girl. Maybe a sequel is in the works?

Harts ridge

Loved the story and how the different characters voices sounded
Can’t wait for book 2

Good book, great dog!

I couldn’t put this book down. Strong woman, under appreciated in a man’s world! Loved the dog angle & intriguing mystery. Highly recommend.

Respect!!

I respect the way she fights against being ostracized by her male counter parts and still does the job. I have been there

Absolutely Remarkable

I absolutely love this series already and I can see how these characters will evolve and grab you by the heartstrings.
By the time you get to the end, you will race to get started on Lucy in the sky Instead of waiting for those end credits to speak.
I tell ya, it's ANOTHER success written by an accomplished author, What would we do without her creative works and keeping the different characters straight and nothing like what is in her other series.
I couldn't stop, I tell ya, I highly recommend this and not just from the author, But the narrator is absolutely astounding. It's like She has done her homework with the delivering of each emotion, what is going on and what was going on behind the scenes.
What a remarkable team!!!

It was okay.

The blurb I read online is what pulled me in. A little girl found lost & the search for her family. Spoilers! If the story had been all about that I would have given a better review. But IMHO it was more about the heroine and her family which was a distraction. I think the twist at the VERY end was meant to make the reader angry enough to read #2. Meh. I don’t think I’m going to read the rest of the series.

Couldn't put down!

I really never leave reviews, but this book deserves one! I love how the story kept you interesting and that it was so unpredictable!

5 Stars For This Great Start to the Series
