Description:
Arizona sheriff Joanna Brady returns in this outstanding new mystery set in the beautiful desert country of the Southwest.
With a baby on the way, her mother and stepfather recently slain, a re-election campaign looming, and a daughter heading off for college, Cochise County Sheriff Joanna Brady has her hands full when a puzzling new case hits her department, demanding every resource she has at her disposal.
Two women have fallen to their deaths from a small nearby peak, referred to by Bisbee locals as Geronimo. What’s the connection between these two women? Is this a case of murder/suicide or is it a double homicide? And if someone else is responsible, is it possible that the perpetrator may, even now, be on the hunt for another victim?
My Thoughts:
This book follows Joanna Brady very shortly after the novella which followed the death of her parents. In this one Joanna is still preparing for their funeral along with a double homicide of two women who seem to have nothing in common. Futher search leads them to a local school teacher who was one of the victims Susan seems to have more secrets than Jessica Fletcher has murders in town. In the course of the investigation Joanna learns more about those involved with Susan the more possible suspects appear!
I enjoyed reading this book one of the authors I read early on in my book life. I was addicted to J.P Beaumont and after reading the novella about Joanna and Alli I was hooked and can't wait to see where the books lead next. This one kept me going late into the night wondering who the killer was and watching Joanna solve the crime!
