Killer Secrets
As alcohol lubricates the conversation at a 30th high school reunion, Judy Bloom lets slip that she had an intimate relationship with a teacher while she was a student. More revelations follow, along with the news that the teacher kept a video camera hidden in his closet. When two classmates get to the retired teachers house, they find it abandoned with evidence he’d been dragged away. Pine County deputies Floyd Swenson and Pam Ryan work their way through the videos, finding the victims evasive and unwilling to speak. Pam Ryan’s growing cynicism spills into her personal life, driving her to a decision point with her new boyfriend who might not be ready for a lasting relationship with a cop.

Another page-turner
Hovey brings the reader back to the sheriff's department in Pine County, where the reader follows the investigation by two deputies who find evidence of past crimes, then a body in the old Sandstone school. The reader not only learns more of the details as the case unfolds but learns more about the lives of the law enforcement officers and the effect that heinous crimes have on them.

Killer Secrets-Great book
Another great book by Dean Hovey! The characters and their relationships seem so real, it's easy to get caught up in their lives. I also enjoy reading about locations that are actually familiar to me.

Killer Secrets is a fast paced murder mystery with a small town feel. No need to live in a major city to run into danger and drama. I love how Hovey puts the reader in Floyd Swenson's cop car passenger seat to tag along the complicated trail of suspects and disturbing events.
