Lena London is working on a second
collaboration with Camilla Graham, Lena’s favorite mystery
suspense author. It’s been seven months since her arrival
in Blue Lake, Indiana, and Lena is thrilled that Camilla included
her name on the cover of their recent release. They hope that
the peace and quiet they need to work will continue, but murder
intrudes on their efforts, especially when Lena’s best
friend, Allison, discovers the postman’s body.
Unfortunately, the letter opener used to kill the postman
belonged to Sam West, Lena’s new boyfriend. Lena helped
clear Sam of the murder of his wife, Victoria, after Lena
found evidence that the woman was alive and married to a rich
recluse.
Now Victoria’s baby has been kidnapped, and Victoria’s
second husband is a prime suspect, but the man has a solid
alibi. Now it’s certain that someone is trying to make
Sam look guilty again. A surveillance video at Sam’s
home reveals a break in, but the figure is unidentifiable.
When Lena gets a threatening note on Sam’s letterhead,
then an invasion occurs at Camilla’s home, it’s
clear a killer is loose and one of them may be the next victim.
A Dark and Twisting Path stands on its own as an
electrifying and fast-paced read, and one I couldn’t
put down. However, I highly suggest you read the previous
two releases to savor the solid plot, the growing emotional
intensity and caring between the main characters, and the
secondary characters who add additional charm and richness
to an outstanding and thrilling mystery. I can’t wait
for the next release in this thrilling series.
