When former forensic photographer Miranda Rhoads moves to the seaside town of Lost Beach, she's decided to make her living as a wildlife photographer and put crime scenes behind her. But her plans are quickly upended when one morning, she comes across a couple sleeping in a canoe, entwined in an embrace. Looking closer, she realizes the man and woman aren't asleep – they've been murdered.
Detective Joel Breda sets out to find answers – not only about the unidentified victims in the marshy death scene, but also about the aloof and beautiful photographer who seems to know more about his investigation than he does.
As they begin to unravel the motivation of a merciless serial killer, Miranda and Joel must race against the clock to make an arrest before the killer can find them first.
One of these days, I am going to figure out how to review titles by Laura Griffin without accidentally giving out spoilers.
Today is not that day.
Miranda and Joel meet when she happens upon a murder scene...you know, as you do on your morning strolls. Wait, no, that really shouldn't happen. And, when it does, it shouldn't lead to finding the love of your life.
But, when Laura Griffin is involved, it does. She has a way of writing the murder story that also has the romance, so while this really is a story about a murder, the romantic elements are also allowed to exist. It's a talent, to blend the murder, the mystery, and the romance, and this author is uniquely gifted in doing so.
I enjoyed and recommend this title, and I will read the next one in the series as soon as I can get my hands on it.
