Another great book by Shannon Work! The suspense was enough to keep me turning the pages, and it's always nice to find a great, entertaining book without filthy scenes. I don't usually like kids in books, but Abby was so well written that I didn't mind her, and of course, there were some fun dog scenes for the animal lovers. The focal point, of course, was the great Rocky Mountains of Colorado and some fun peeks into the town of Telluride. It just makes for a majestic book setting. If you haven't read one of Work's novels, I highly recommend trying one out.

Most exciting book of the series!
Like all of Shannon Work’s books, this one doesn’t disappoint. The clues are peppered in for the perfect amount of mystery and excitement.
If you enjoy mysteries, this is a must read. The descriptions of other mountains make me feel like I’m there. The characters have charm, and of course, there is intrigue, leaving the audience to guess who “done it” until the very end.
Bravo!

I have really enjoyed this book series by Shannon Work and particularly liked Echoes in the Dark. The last half was a real page-turner. I couldn’t believe the plot twist at the end! Can’t wait for the next one in the series!

Another satisfying resolution to a series of murders...only wish Jack could find that special someone. Otto just doesn't cut it!!!! Anxiously waiting for the next book.

Mountain Resort Mystery #6
A good, solid mystery. And the setting is so beautiful that I really have put Telluride on my “must visit” list.
