Books 22, 23, and 24!

Book 22 Southern Storm book 2 in the Cape Refuge series by Terri Blackstock. Police Chief Matthew Cade is patrolling the island during a bad storm when a man walks out in front of his patrol car. The man ends up dying, leaving Cade feeling guilty for what has happened in this unbelievable accident. During the autopsy they discover evidence that makes it seem as though he was going to die anyway. Will the Chief be cleared, will the real murderer be found. And what of the widow of the man, what will she do in response. I'd tell you more but then the story would be wrecked. The twists and turns of this book led me to read it in 2 days! Great story.


Book 23 River's Edge book 3 in the Cape Refuge series. Again a book that only took 2 days to read (mind you that is between doing laundry and remembering to take care of the other things I have to do each day!) This book too is filled with twists and turns. Just when you think you have it all figured out you find out you are wrong! 3 men are running for Mayor to fill the gap left by the jailing of the previous Mayor for the murder of Morgan and Blair's parents. Suddenly, one of the candidates wives ends up dead. Who did it? Was it the husband who seems to have been having an affair or one of the other candidates, or the fertility Dr? Only by reading the book will you be able to figure it out. Again, telling you to much will spoil the book.


Finally, book 24 Breaker's Reef the final book in the Cape Refuge series. This was by far the book I knew I had figured out from about the 4th chapter. Only later did I find out I was WRONG! It wasn't until the final chapter that the true murderer was revealed, and I was shocked that it was not who I thought it would be. In this story young girls are turning up missing and dead. What is the connection, who is doing it, why does it resemble the murders in a mystery writers books and why is the Chief once again being blamed? Wonderful, intriguing stories that you just can't put down! Great summer reading. I can't wait to read some more of her books. Now if the library would just hurry up and get them in!

In the meantime I'm reading Artemis Fowl, a book my son picked up. It's interesting...you'll have to come back to read the review later.
