A make-or-break election. A food poisoning epidemic. A town in chaos.
With a highly charged local election consuming the community, Police Chief Cassidy Chambers braces herself for a challenging day of breaking up petty conflicts and tamping down high emotions. But when widespread food poisoning spreads among potential voters across the island, Cassidy smells something rotten in the air.
As Cassidy examines every possibility to uncover what’s going on, local enigma Anthony Gilead again comes on her radar. The man is running for mayor and his cult-like following is growing at an alarming rate. Cassidy feels certain he has a spy embedded in her inner circle. The problem is that her pool of suspects gets deeper every day.
Can Cassidy get to the bottom of what’s eating away at her peaceful island home? Will voters turn out despite the outbreak of illness plaguing their tranquil town? And the even bigger question: Has darkness come to stay on Lantern Beach?
My Review:
This was an excellent book!! Wow, Christy Barritt is on FIRE! This book, which is no different than her others, will have you on edge of your seat wondering who has done what. With the characters that we have come to love and dislike, this story features a deadly mystery that needs to be solved ASAP. As the plot twisted and turned and had me wrung inside out, it was one that left an impression on my soul--something a bit different than the other stories for me (I can't share or I would spoil it!). Curl up in your favorite chair, settle in (and strap in!), and get ready for a great mystery!
I voluntarily received a complimentary copy from the author. All opinions and thoughts are my own.
Rating: 5 out of 5 stars
