Summary

Maddie Baker hasn’t seen Detective Noah Langley since he ghosted her a month ago, but now she needs his help to find a missing woman. When Maddie Baker offers a self-defense course, a terrified young woman asks her for private lessons to escape a chokehold. Maddie readily agrees to meet Amy the next morning, but when she doesn’t show up, Maddie becomes concerned.

She enlists the help of Detective Noah Langley and his partner Lance Forrester. Since it’s not an official investigation, and the only thing they know about her is her first name, it’s not long before their hands are tied.

Besides, Noah has a dilemma of his own. A rash of home burglaries has taken a disturbing turn. Noah and his partner Lance feel pressed to catch the burglars before someone is physically assaulted…or worse.

To top things off, Maddie’s ex-boyfriend Steve is in town suddenly wanting her back. Her aunt’s dementia is worsening, and her best friend Mallory has shown up on her doorstep with news of her own.

Maddie’s got her hands full, so she should let her concern for the missing woman go, right? Only she’s trusting her gut, and it’s telling her something’s rotten in Cockamamie.

Absolutely Brilliant!

I listened to this straight after the first one, and this was just as excellent as the first one! My only disappointment is that I will now have to wait ages for another one to come out 😁
This was the perfect murder mystery, with lots of tension and some brilliant plot twists. The writing is so rich and descriptive, that it's easy to picture the entire story playing out. I'm English, and have never visited Tennessee, but had absolutely no problem picturing the town of Cockamamie, its surrounding county, and all of the people, places & action taking place within this book, due to the brilliant writing, and the fantastic narration provided by Shannon McManus & Chris Brinkley.
Long may this series continue!
In the meantime, I'm looking forward to listening to lots more of Denise Grover Swank's books, as she is a new author to me. Given the quality of these 2 Maddie Baker books, I cannot wait to listen to more 😊👏
