Murder in the San Juans: Large Print

Mountain Resort Mystery #4

by Shannon Work

The most beautiful places often hide the deadliest secrets.

Life in the mountains isn’t as peaceful as Detective Jack Martin expected. Just as things settle down after his last case, a congressman’s plane is blown out of the sky and comes to rest in the snowy peaks high above town.

Jack’s gut tells him it wasn’t an accident. But while unraveling the mystery, he gets caught in the crossfire between deception and greed. And the deeper he digs, the more he puts his own life in danger. It’s a grueling investigation that has him wondering how well we really know those we trust.

Can Jack untangle the murderous web of lies and solve the case before he gets trapped in the killer’s deadly scheme?

Murder in the San Juans is a gripping tale of betrayal in the formidable San Juan Mountains around Telluride, Colorado, and the fourth book in the suspenseful Mountain Resort Mystery Series.

This book was awesome! It started off with a plane crash and kept my attention throughout the book. When I read a mystery, usually I have some idea of who did it but this time the author kept me guessing. It was a quick read with all the loose ends tied up, which I like.

Another fun, don’t want to put down mystery by Shannon Work. I really enjoyed the characters, some old and some new. I kept guessing who did it till the very end. I’m ready for the next Jack and Crockett adventure.

This is the fourth book in the Mountain Retreat Mysteries. Detective Jack Martin is on another case in the Mountains of Colorado. The books are always fun and this one is no different. A great mystery novel with plenty of twists.

Twists and Turns!

Just like the twists and turns of the roads in the Rockies, Work takes her audience on a journey to uncover the mystery and beauty of the San Juan Mountains.

This fast paced novel doesn’t disappoint!
