Book Description:
You can't move to the next chapter of your life, without tying up loose ends in the previous.
True crime blogger, Erica Hart starts a new chapter in her life with a bang when a dark shadow darts into the mountain road to send her SUV off a cliff and to the bottom of Deep Creek Lake. Spencer’s newest addition to the police force, Dusty O’Meara assumes it was a bear. Erica is not so sure.
Soon afterwards, contractors discover Konnor Langston’s body at the bottom of an abandoned swimming pool at the new summer home of Mac Faraday’s son.
With Police Chief David O’Callaghan away on paternity leave, Deputy Chief Dusty O’Meara must lead the investigation in his first murder case since moving to Spencer. Not only does Dusty have to work under the shadow of the legendary Mac Faraday, but he also has to match wits with Erica, who is determined to find justice for Konnor, her childhood friend.
Mac isn’t so difficult. Even Gnarly, the town’s canine mayor, is manageable if his authority is well-respected and he is kept entertained.
Erica Hart, Dusty finds, is more of a challenge. It wouldn’t be so difficult if she wasn’t so irresistible.

My newest favorite book from Ms. Lauren
I know when I read any books from Ms. Lauren that I won't be disappointed. The Shadow Of Murder is my newest favorite book of hers. It is a mind-blowing, funny, beautiful friendship and romance.
Teddy is one funny character. He is just the most adorable bird. He is one of my favorite characters.
The Shadow Of Murder has a little science fiction which makes the story more complex in a very good way. Ms. Carr's book is always hard to put down. Once you start reading, you are doomed. This story is so emotional, gut-wrenching, and unforgettable. Evil people will never win. They will always have an end. It might not be right away but it will end eventually. It has been a while since I read books from Ms. Carr, the fan in me is so excited and she never stops to amaze me. This book is one of a kind.
