How long would you wait to prove your son's death was no accident?

Dozens of family members and loved ones who never got any closure call Detective Al Harris to look into their cold cases. He ignores most of them, trying to get back to focusing on not doing any real work.

Then a particularly persistent woman piques his interest. Her son died on a fishing trip with his friends almost a decade ago - seemingly just a tragic accident. But his mother is certain that it was no accident. When enough details dont line up, the detective agrees to take on the case, even if it means the end of his career.

Although the storyline had an interesting premise it felt like there needed to be more to the story

Although the storyline had an interesting premise it felt like there needed to be more to the story, like it was cut short.

A captivating detective read with an engrossing main character

I never even heard of this author until a few days ago and this is my second story today and since the story was only 65 pages long I figured what the heck. My gain! A captivating detective read with an engrossing main character, not as much action and adventure as the first book, but that's police work. I definitely want to read more from Rob Costas.

A new Al Harris' short story, this one lives ...

A new Al Harris' short story, this one lives to the high standards set by the first one.

A desperate mother, an old cold case, and a case that could be detective Harris end make this a thrilling read that will keep you glued to the screen/pages until the end.

I was provided with this book in exchange for an honest review.

Very good

This short story is a look into cold case work by an old grouch of a cop who really doesnât want to work at all. Itâs a well written story with good characters also sad but with the reality of human frailty. I liked it.

Great short story

I was provided this book free for an honest review,I liked this book.Only wised it was longer,it was interesting and fast moving.I'll be watching for more by this writer.

Members Reviews:

EXCELLENT. ONE OF THE BEST IN THE SERIES.

Scott William Carter did it again. Fantastic writing and well performed by Steven Roy Grimsley. Intense and gripping all through. Kept me awake the whole night to complete the book. Layers upon layers of secrets that kept me guessing who is actually the bad guy and what is the motive behind it all. Lots of suspense and gripping tensions throughout. Very, very good. I hope there will be more books for this series.

Publisher's Summary:

Rune is an aspiring filmmaker with more ambition than political savvy, paying her dues as an assistant cameraperson for the local news. But she's got her eyes on the prize, the network's hot news magazine, Current Events - and she's got the story she knows will get her there.

Poking around in the video archives, Rune spots a taped interview with Randy Boggs, who's doing hard time in Attica for a murder he claims he didn't commit. Rune can't say exactly why, but she's sure he's innocent. If she can prove it, Current Events won't merely report the news, it'll make news - and Rune's career.

But what she could be writing is Randy Boggs's epitaph - and her own. Rune's newly discovered witness soon turns up dead. A hit man from Miami is on Rune's trail, and Boggs is finding prison even more dangerous than before. Someone wants this story killed, and it could be the girl with the camera who ends up on the cutting room floor.

This book is a mixed bag

The story in this book is very interesting, and moves very well, until the last part. The descriptions are good, the dialogue is good, and the writing just flows. That can't be an accident or a one time lucky thing.

I cannot understand why a superb writer like this gets tired of his own book before it's finished. There must have been a deadline that was too short or something of the sort. At a certain stage of the action, and I mean right in the middle of some action, there suddenly comes a spate of explanations from one "goodguy" character who's holding a gun on two "badguy" characters, with the main character in the room also. Background and past actions are quickly described by this savior as if in a hurried summary. He's just doing a monologue, it seems. I don't think that would happen in real life. It was very distracting in a book I was really enjoying.

I hope to try another Deaver book, because I believe he's a good writer. I hope.

Great

He's a top notch writer, love all his works!

Don't bother

Even if a Deaver fan, and I've enjoyed some of his later works, this trilogy is hard to get behind. Very unfathomable heroine. How this bubble-headed young woman gets out of jam after jam just gets mind-boggling. Decided to buy all three and read back-to-back. Well, it was a commitment I couldn't wait to get through.

Disappointing

I am a Deaver fan, but this book did not hold my interest. The storyline dragged and there was no suspense.

Publisher's Summary:

A dying convict's last request thrusts small-town newspaperman Jefferson Morgan into a deadly maelstrom as he explores a 50-year-old case of child murder - a wound his town still isn't ready to scrape open. Under the heaviest deadline of his life, and amid threats from unexpected foes, Morgan must struggle with his own conscience to tell a story no matter the consequences, dig deep into the town's past, and unveil a killer who's managed to remain hidden in plain sight for almost 50 years.

Members Reviews:

Excellent story!!

In this book we meet Jefferson Morgan, a reporter who had been working for 18 years at the Chicago Tribune. After the illness & then death of his young son Bridger, Morgan & his wife Claire decide to leave Chicago behind. They move back to Morgan's small hometown of Winchester, Wyoming & purchase the small newspaper business he had worked at as a boy!

Running a business in a small town is never easy, but it seems like running the Bullet has its difficulties meeting it's weekly DEADLINE on time!

Then one day in comes an old convicted & dying man named Newly Gilmartin. Gilmartin had spent most of his life in prison for the murder of a young girl many years ago & was now asking Morgan to clear his name before he dies! ( with the looks of it, there seems to be little time left for Gilmartin)

Will Jefferson take on the challenge? After all..why would Gilmartin have confessed to a murder if he didn't do it? This may be the most important DEADLINE that Jefferson has to beat! Can he do it??

I REALLY enjoyed this Jefferson Morgan story and was happy that the next story The OBITUARY was also full of intrigue & mystery!

Deadline-An Amazing Story Written By A Very Talented Author.

Even though I usually read true crime, I really enjoyed this book.Ron has a unique knack for keeping you in suspense....

The characters come alive in this fantastic book....Jefferson and ClMorgan decided to move back to his home town after the death of their son "Bridger. " to try to get a fresh start..Jefferson never imagined that an old man, imprisoned for most of his life, would seek his help in exonerating his name for the crime of murder in 1946 of a little girl they called Aimee Little Spotted Horse.Jefferson didn't believe him at first but after checking out a few things that make him believe Neeley.Anyway I dont want to ruin the story for you.But it's an amazing story.I loved it.

A Fresh, Never-a-Dull Moment Mystery, Masterfully Woven!

Chicago newspaper reporter Jeff Morgan leaves the big city behind to buy the weekly newspaper in his hometown, a premise that holds no hint of the wild, unpredictable journey author Ron Franscell has planned for his reader. Several subplots are deliciously intertwined and masterfully written by Franscell. The protagonist pours his heart into solving a mystery and fulfilling a request made by an ex-con who will succumb to terminal cancer at any time. In the process, old resentments, buried secrets and small-town power plays work to keep Jeff from seeing that justice is done. Just when the reader has identified "the bad guys," the story takes another direction, and Franscell proves again what a gripping story he has cobbled together.

Publisher's Summary:

Shortly after the remains of a teenaged boy are unearthed on newly acquired Twin Lakes property, Lydia Krause has a worrisome conversation with her elderly neighbor. Daniel Korman hints at having known the dead boy and wonders if, after all this time, he should let sleeping dogs lie. Then Daniel dies under suspicious circumstances, and Lydia suspects that his two surviving childhood friends are responsible for both deaths. Or did one of Daniel's money-hungry relatives decide to end his life? As the murders and assaults mount, Lydia is drawn further and further into Daniel Korman's world. And, as if things weren't bad enough, her budding relationship with Detective Sol Molina is seriously compromised as she seeks answers in what Sol considers his professional arena. Can Lydia keep her relationship intact while uncovering the true killer?

Members Reviews:

even though Sol doing his best to keep her from investigating

Lydia Krause is present when the discovery of a body puts a stop to all work on the Twin Lakes' newest addition that includes a miniature golf course and putting green. The body is removed and sent to the lab, which estimates it was in the cellar between fifty and seventy-five years. There is no ID, but they determine that the remains are that of a male between thirteen and seventeen years of age. As to what happened to him, why and how he ended up in the cellar is anyone's guess.

Lydiaâs boyfriend Detective Sol Molina, who referred to her as "Miss Marple after her help in solving murders that took place in Twin Lakes a few months earlier, warns her to stay out of this investigation. And stay out is exactly what she plans to do. She has more important things to occupy her time, such as her job and attending the eighty-fifth birthday party for a friend and neighbor Daniel Korman. But that changes when Daniel visits her, hinting that he might know something about the body though apparently he isn't ready to share his suspicions. At his birthday party, Daniel announces his engagement to his beloved Evelyn, upsetting many members of his family. Daniel is a very wealthy man, and they see Evelyn as someone out for his money. Then the unexpected happens. The day after Daniel's party he is rushed to the hospital writhing in pain. Hours later he is dead.

Does someone want Daniel dead before he marries Evelyn? It appears that two of his three children are up to their ears in debt and could use his money. But they don't know he has already changed his will leaving most of his money to Evelyn, to go into trust for his kids after she passes. That could prove to be a danger to her life.

With all that is going on around Lydia, there is no way she will let her friends down and not try to get to the bottom of this situation, even though Sol doing his best to keep her from investigating. She is one spunky 59-year-old lady. This is the second book Iâve read in this series. My first was A Murderer Among Us, which hooked me on the characters of Lydia and Sol. These books are light reading mysteries that are hard to put down. And despite the many books I read, I still had a hard time coming up with the truly bad guy until the end.

Great book!

I thoroughly enjoyed this tale of murder and mistrust. Ms.

Title: AT Dawn

Publisher's Summary:

FBI Special Agent Alex Troutt returns in a twisting, heart-pounding thriller.

Three flashes of light illuminate a dark sky. An unspeakable evil devours its prey.

The shimmering view of the sun-drenched ocean can often be nothing more than a mirage. For Alex Troutt, a trip back home for a much-needed summer vacation proves only one thing: greed rules. But how it takes root could destroy her world.

Fueled by the lust of power and money, the shadow of death envelopes her seaside hometown, including those closest to Alex. But as disconnected investigations converge into one focal point, Alex will stop at nothing to blow the entire crime ring straight to hell - even if she has to make the ultimate sacrifice...her life.

Members Reviews:

Another terrific adventure in the Alex Troutt series. Highly recommend!!!

I received this book in advance in exchange for an honest review, but, as soon as it came out I purchased it. Alex Troutt stories are a real treat. While she has been through her own trials and tribulations in previous stories, including losing all her memory in an accident, this book can be a stand alone story if you want to start the series at this point. In this story, she tries to take some time off, from her FBI job, visit her beach side hometown, reconnect with her father, meet his new âgirlfriend,â and relax. If you have ever read any of these stories, you know in advance that even a vacation at the beach is no vacation when you are Alex Trout. Between the drugs, the gangs, the murders, the kidnappings, the plot twists, and, of course, the bullets flying everywhere, Alex would have been better off staying home with her children and chasing bad guys from there. Each of the stories is completely different, but the characters themselves develop a bit more in each book. I am looking forward to the next book in the series - At Dusk. I know it will be fantastic.

The Sun Does Not Always Rise

Mefford describes At Dawn as a good beach or pool side read, and that it is. The first chapter will put you on the edge of your recliner. Graphic, action filled and curiosity creating, and perhaps the best chapter in the book. But sadly I think the novel could have been much better. As I read it I could not help but think Mefford was working to create a page turner, and his work is too obvious. At times the dialogue between Alex and her children is strained. Her relationship with her partner Archie is always understandable, but not always believable. And portions of the plot appear to be omitted so that he can surprise the reader as he wraps up the story in the final chapters. All this said I will also tell you that I am one of his pre-publication readers which means I read At Dawn free of charge, and had to purchase the book in order to write this review. I would not have done so had I thought this a wasted read. There is action, it is graphic and it grabs your attention at times. I simply wish it had grabbed my attention more often.

John Mefford has another winner with AT Dawn!

I am one of John Meffordâs advanced readers. Although I received a free copy prior to publication, I bought my own as soon as it became available. Why? Because I thoroughly enjoyed the book.

AT Dawn, the fourth of John Meffordâs latest series, is a must read book.

Publisher's Summary:

"I need your help, Detective. Fire or water?"

Detective Robert Hunter of the LAPD's Homicide Special Section receives an anonymous call asking him to go to a specific web address - a private broadcast. Hunter logs on, and a show devised for his eyes only immediately begins.

But the caller doesn't want Detective Hunter to just watch; he wants him to participate, and refusal is simply not an option. Forced to make a sickening choice, Hunter must sit and watch as an unidentified victim is tortured and murdered live over the Internet.

The LAPD, together with the FBI, use everything at their disposal to electronically trace the transmission down, but this killer is no amateur, and he has covered his tracks from start to finish. And before Hunter and his partner, Garcia, are even able to get their investigation going, Hunter receives a new phone call. A new website address. A new victim. But this time the killer has upgraded his game into a live murder reality show where anyone can cast the deciding vote.

Members Reviews:

For me not as good as other books in the series

I'm binge listening through the Hunter and Garcia series at the moment. Felt the storyline was a bit too similar to other books in the series. Became a tad bit predictable. The story also seemed a bit too far-fetched in a ridiculous sort of way. However it wasnt bad enough for me to abort the read, I just wasn't as entertained as much as I'd been reading Carters other work. I will no doubt look forward to the next book in the collection.

Another winner!

Chris Carter and Thomas Judd have done it again and delivered another fantastic story!

Chris has an imagination for the darkest murder that simply blows you away and Thomas has an amazing way of really bringing the characters to life.

I just went to buy the next book in the series and realised we've lost Thomas as a narrator. That's sad as he really bought Robert Hunter to life and the new narrator just doesn't sound right!

Gory excellent

Enjoyed the story very much which probably makes me a sick ..... Narrator made the book come alive, one of my favourite narrators .. keep the books comming

Usual Cater

I like the performance and the plot is complicated enough to keep me intereted, but there are too many details for me (which is typical of Carter) and I lose interest from time to time. It reminds me one of my professors. I really tried to do my best to listen to him, but he kept making digressions and my concentration just kept weakening. Same here. At times I had to listen to a Chapter twice because I missed an important turn, bored by the numbers "stretch 587, crash589" or by gore descriptions. Also,Robert Hunter is much too flawless for my liking...I don't believe he is for real...
