Review of In Too Deep by Lynn H. Balckburn

What it's about: Carrington County Sheriff's office dive team is at it once again. With a new case involving a submerged car, a dead woman who has left a rather gruesome note that leads Detective Adam Campbell on the hunt for a killer. Along with Dr. Sabrina Flemming, this duo, along with the sheriff's office team, are running against time to find out who the killer on the loose is, and could it even be someone in Adam's family?

What I thought: What a fantastic book! This is book two in the Dive Team Investigations and it does not disappoint! Blackburn has spun another tale that is hard to put down until it's finished! It may be easier to understand all the characters if the reader reads book one in the series, but it's not too hard to pick up on past story lines if the first book hasn't been read. Blackburn does an amazing job grabbing the reader right from the start and keeping them flipping the pages until the end. With twists and turns along the way and the reader changing their mind as to who the killer may be, Blackburn keeps you guessing up until the end in this suspense thriller that keeps you wanting more.

Would you like it? If you enjoy suspense thrillers, this is definitely the book for you! With a splash of romance and the page turning thrill, those who enjoy this type of genre will have a hard time putting this book down.

Review of Hidden Peril by Irene Hannon

Nutshell: Kristen Dane is the proud owner of a small fair trade store. Her partnership with organizations around the world brings light to how to support others in different countries. Little does she know though that she is being used by a group that is out to infiltrate the United States with evil through the use of one of her products...candles. After two deaths are tied to the purchase of the candles, the police and detective Luke Carter are brought in to get to the bottom of this mystery. Through detective and undercover work, Kristen and Dane are on the race against time before there is a next victim in this sinister plot.

What I thought: What a fast paced, adventurous story that takes you from one side of the world to the other. Hannon does a great job weaving a complex story into pages that you can't turn fast enough. This is the second book in the Code of Honor series and can be read as a stand alone book as well. I enjoyed the twists and turns the reader went on all the way through the book, right up to the end.

Would you enjoy it? If you like mystery-suspense books, you will enjoy this nugget. There is a bit of violence and splashes of romance throughout, but the main suspense is what will keep you going to the end.
