Limited time. A murderer hiding in plain sight. Can she crack the deadly puzzle without breaking her own heart?
‛Mama Rose’ Hardie just wants to make her ailing husband comfortable. So she puts aside her dedication to wildlife and community and whisks him off to a luxury lodge for a breathtaking getaway. But when a guest enters the bush and never returns, Rose is torn between remaining at her partner’s side and her fears for the woman’s plight.
Shocked when the missing person is found strangled to death, Rose struggles to balance her priorities when her husband takes a serious fall and ends up in the hospital. And with her estranged son demanding she stay by her husband’s bedside, the anxious investigator worries the killer may escape into the grassland…
Can Mama Rose solve the murder before time is cut short?
This is a tribute to life and death, to family and friendship and making the best of ones talents and potential.
If you read this series in order you will best understand the relationships and character growth.
That said, the book does well as a stand alone. The author does an amazing job of describing the locations and environments. The lush forests and the dry plains, the magnificent wildlife that play major roles in this series.
There are some characters that you know upon meeting that you can not come to care for. They begin as trouble and continue to leave a bad taste in your mouth with each encounter. That does not mean the mystery will be simple and clear cut. You must still work the clues and combine pieces of the puzzles,
There will be tears shed but also a sense of closure and coming to peace.
Family dynamics play a major role. Can things be smoother before it is too late?
Take your time and appreciate all the nuances and details.
This is a series to get lost in and find your way home.
