Murders at Blackwaterfoot by Miller Caldwell
As winter starts to make itself felt here in Northern Michigan, I'm settling down with a dandy little crime thriller!
Murders at Blackwaterfoot will be my 3rd book tour through Love Books Tours, a UK based outfit that offers review copies of books across a variety of genres for readers to read and review.
Watch for my full review November 30th.
Based at Lamlash on Arran, PC Rory Murdoch has a minimal caseload, giving him ample time to think about his daughter, Ella, and her special needs. Then three murders occur in close succession. His supervising officer, mainland-based D.I. Samuel Grant is not supportive. Can Rory stand up to this bully and undermine their superior? Rory receives a letter from Belgium and Ella has a remarkable insight both of which lead to High Court trials in Ayr. How can Rory cope with three murder trials while his mind is preoccupied with greater matters? This is a fast-paced story set on the stunningly beautiful island of Arran with elements of humour, pathos, romance and great sadness.
