Deadly Current
A flash flood. A body in the river. A murder no storm could hide.
Sheriff Ray Duke barely survives rescuing a family from the raging waters—but when the flood recedes, it leaves behind coffins ripped from an old mining cemetery… and a corpse that didn’t drown.
The small town of Blue Sky erupts with a crooked caretaker, a feud between prospectors, and a fortune in gold rich enough to kill for. Every clue points to Charlie Flowers—violent, desperate, and caught red-handed with stolen flakes. But his rival, Lyle Martin, has more secrets than alibis.
As Duke fights to untangle the lies, a smooth-talking stranger arrives with deep pockets and dangerous promises. And buried beneath the greed is a thread leading back to the one case Duke has never solved—his sister’s disappearance, twenty-five years ago.
Some secrets stay buried. Others claw their way out.
Perfect for fans of clean, redemptive mysteries, this novel delivers edge-of-your-seat suspense without the grit—just courage, conviction, and hope in the face of darkness. Be sure to begin this series with book 1, Cold As The Grave to maximize your reading experience.

I have to be honest and say I didn't finish this book. It lost steam and the author seem to be ticking all the boxes to fit the genre instead of being creative ( while staying within the genre.) The characters seemed flat and unrealistic. I am glad this was on Kindle and not an actual paper book.

Clean, suspenseful mysteries
Very well-written without needing the profanity on every page that many authors today use to a nauseating degree. If you like good,clean writing and very suspenseful stories, this author is for you.

This one was as good as the first ♡ however there is slight repetition of verbiage when it comes to the descriptive details of a scene that got slightly annoying lol found myself speed skimming past quite a bit of it - good story though!

This would have been an easy 5 star but I felt like there was too much redundancy in the book.
