This book is a totally clean and Christian read.
Although this is the second book in the series, it can definitely be read as a standalone as I had not read book #1 and had no problems understanding the plot or the connections between the characters. Harper Reynolds is a former crime scene photographer who is enjoying her visit to Wyoming and is taking photos of the Grand Tetons when she suddenly sees a murder occurring and photographs it. Naturally, her being a witness to the crime puts her in the crosshairs of the perpetrator. Along with a rancher/deputy sheriff named Heath McKade, Harper is determined to solve the crime before she ends up being a victim. The action is fast-paced and is definitely heart-stopping in places. The mystery is well-developed, with many clues along the way to help the savvy mystery buff solve the case along with Harper and Heath. Secrets from the past are adequately linked to present events so that the story makes a full and satisfying circle. Fans of books with family, faith and a theme of second chances will really enjoy this latest book by Goddard and just like me will look forward to the next book in the series.

My rating:

The only reason I did not award five stars is because I was able to follow the cues and figure out the villain. I would have liked more of a challenge, but the book was very well-written and I did enjoy reading it.
