Beautiful descriptive writing!

What a lovely style of descriptive writing Mary Deal has. I have a vivid picture of the Sacramento region, even though I’ve never been there. This book is more than just a thriller, it’s full of well researched information on the area, the levies and traditions of the hardy people who live there. Plus a sprinkling of romance. The characters are very much alive and interesting personalities. And there are enough twists to keep you guessing who the killers is. That is almost an after thought, as the story contains much more of the readjustments Sara has to make on returning to her home town and confronting the pains of her young life. I’m sure this would make a good film. So pleased this is the first of a series and I’ll continue to follow Sara’s story. The only slight negative for me was the narrator,Nikki Zakocs. Her narration was fine, if a little slow at times, but I found some of her pronunciations became irritating. This is very much a personal preference thing and I’m sure others will find no fault with her accent at all. Overall I very much recommend the excellent start to a series.

A Good Crime Thriller.

Sara Mason makes a good central character for this enjoyable serial killer crime mystery novel. With good writing, plotting and many twists and turns it was a good listen. The narration was good, for me it was a little slow in places but Audible lets you correct this. A cast of well rounded characters and nice sense of place in the descriptions of the locations. I look forward to the rest of the series.
