The discovery of a young woman's body in a ditch sets the town of Lakewood on edge. As more people go missing, the Lakewood Police suspect there is a serial killer targeting their city. Other than the motive appears to be money, there are few clues and little evidence to go on. As more bodies are found, tortured, and discarded like trash, Detectives Connor Maxwell, Kate Stroup, and K9 beagle, Sundae, feel the pressure to catch the dangerous criminal in their midst. Is the killer purposefully leaving misleading clues or just lucky? Can Connor, Kate, and Sundae untangle the mystery of what is real and what is deception? This tense, suspenseful thriller will keep you on the edge of your seat and reading late into the night to find the answers.

With this book Deception, the second Connor Maxwell Mystery, author Timothy Glass has delivered a taut, exciting, page-turner that will delight fans of police procedural mysteries and leave them looking for more from this team. Find a comfortable spot and settle in for a fast-paced ride that will leave you breathless. Great stuff! Strong characters and great storytelling in this series will hopefully introduce new fans to this series. I can't recommend Tim's books enough.
I really enjoyed this book . It. was direct, more interested in story line than bogged down in procedures. And didn't forget about the important roll other breeds can play if given a chance.
My husband and I both love this series. A great read with mystery, detectives, love interest, and an adorable K9 officer named Sundae. Once started, hard to put down. I highly recommend this series.
