Review:
This the first book I have read from Laura Griffin and book 11 in a series and all I can saw is WOW!
From the first page to the last I couldn't stop myself from reading. The mystery hooks on and won't let readers go until the very last word.
This can be read as a stand alone because Laura Griffin keeps readers updated on past characters without bring the story to a halt.
At Close Range is a perfect romantic suspense novel with the mystery and the romance balanced out. Neither one over powers the other keeping reading loving every page of this thrilling mystery.
Dani will have readers rooting for her and they will not be disappointed. She is a strong female characters who struggles with her own self esteem. Dani kicks butts and takes names.
Laura Griffin doesn't fall on the sword of the typical R.S where the mystery sits in the background and sex takes over. The mystery is front and center and the author is able to weave a romance into the mystery that makes this one perfect novel for this reader.
Thank you Netgalley and the Publishers for the advance Copy in exchange for my thoughts
I have found my replacement for Linda Howard and I can't wait to dig into another book.
Synopsis:
When a lakeside tryst ends in a double murder, police detective Daniele Harper arrives on the scene determined to get answers. Clues are everywhere, but nothing adds up. Dani turns to the Delphi Center crime lab for help, but soon regrets it when her secret attraction to their chief firearms examiner threatens to distract her from the most important case of her career.
As a ballistics expert and former Navy SEAL, Scott Black knows firearms, and he knows he can help Dani unravel her case. Scott has managed to hide his interest in his best friend’s younger sister for years, but when her investigation brings them together, the sparks between them quickly get out of control. Scott resolves to keep his hands off Dani and his eyes on the goal—identifying a killer. But when that killer zeroes in on Dani, all bets are off. There isn’t a line Scott won’t cross to convince Dani to trust him so that he can help her take down a ruthless murderer who has her in his sights.
