Many thanks to NetGalley, Montlake and Brilliance Audio for gifting me both a digital and audio ARC of the latest police procedural by a favorite, Kendra Elliot. The audiobook is perfectly narrated by Stephanie Németh-Parker. All opinions expressed in this review are my own – 5 stars!
In central Oregon, a teenage girl hunting for cans finds a body abandoned in the woods. Detective Noelle Marshall is on the case while dealing with a community with a big distrust of outsiders, especially the police. FBI Special Agent Max Rhodes is investigating a different darkness – chatter about a violent uprising from a shadow militia group. Can these two cases miles apart be related?
This is the second book in the Noelle Marshall series, with appearances by characters from her other series (all are fabulous – read them!). Elliot knows how to write a strong police procedural/crime fiction/thriller/suspense – whatever genre you want to call it, she nails it. I loved getting back to these characters and professional relationship, as well as their beginning personal one. Plus, we delve more deeply into their backgrounds and how it affects them today. This was atmospheric, tense, and another great book by Elliot. I appreciated having an immersive experience with both the digital and the wonderfully narrated audiobook as well.
