“Terrific Start to New Crime Fiction Series”
(Paperback)
by booklover
Ex-military Grant Fletcher receives a call from an old friend. His 20-something daughter has disappeared. It’s the kind of case that ex-military loner Grant Fletcher would normally be happy to take on—he will always seek justice if someone has the money to pay him. But this one he’s doing for free. This one’s personal. Fletcher owes his life to Lila’s father. And Fletcher knows that returning Lila safe and sound is the only thing that matters to his wheelchair-bound friend. The only clue Fletcher has is that she last talked to her father from a small town in Georgia. What he finds there is baffling. Lila is not the first woman to go missing from there ...and probably won't be the last. He also discovers that he's not the only one looking for these missing women .. .the FBI is interested in finding them .. and in placing Fletcher at the top of the persons of interest list. This is a compelling well-written action-packed novel. I enjoy small town crimes .. the characters are either quirky and friendly.. or just downright evil. This small town has dark secrets and there are those who will do anything at all to keep secrets in the shadows. I like Fletcher's character, the FBI agent not so much. I think it's mostly that she isn't yet fully formed. There are a few twists and turns leading to an unexpected conclusion. Many thanks to the author / Bookouture / Netgalley for the digital copy of this crime fiction. Read and reviewed voluntarily, opinions expressed here are unbiased and entirely my own.
