Deep in the mountains of North Carolina, near the Black River, lives a woman who is an avid animal rights activist. She lets the residents of her small town know how disgusted she is of their hunting and that she doesn’t care if they’re hunting for sport or food! Because of this, all the residents of this small mountain town are angry at her.
The local sheriff is called in when she is found dead in her home, gutted like a deer and left hanging from a garret on her chandelier. Who would do such a despicable thing? The sheriff’s office can’t figure it out so they call in the S.B.I. A beautiful agent named Logan Hunter is assigned to the case.
Logan decides to talk to some of the residents for leads but is stonewalled. They won’t answer her questions but she is determined to solve the grizzly murder and to do that she has to get somebody to talk to her. Slowly, she makes friends with some of the residents and she quickly learns that these people live by their own rules! Along the way, she gathers a lot of information and learns that the list of murder suspects is long.
Soon, small dogs and cats are found dead. Is this somehow related to the murder? Or will Logan find a cult of some kind?
This book is a page turner! Each time Logan Hunter seems to have closed in on the killer, there is a twist and she is pointed in another direction. Believe me; if you like curling up with a good mystery, you’ll definitely like this!
This is Ms. Whitfield’s third novel in the Logan Hunter series. Her colorful descriptions of the region and the residents put you into the book!
