the setupÂ…
Former Philadelphia Homicide Detective Dana Romano, who retired and moved with Bree Taggart to GreyÂ’s Hollow, is now trying out the dating scene. When she agrees to meet Dr. Kent McFadden at his home for dinner, Dana enters a nightmare, finding him shot and the intruder still in the house who escapes but not before he tussles with her. After calling for help and fighting to save his life, she then has to deal with the indignity of being a suspect. Meanwhile, Bree is grappling with escalating personal threats that she is forced to take seriously.

the heart of the storyÂ…
IÂ’ve d Dana from the start, loved how sheÂ’s become a part of BreeÂ’s new family and craved a story where she was front and center. This was everything IÂ’d hoped for, getting her points of view and gaining deeper insights about the woman. The crime was puzzling enough but the investigation being focused on Dana heightened the tension and unease as it was led by the Redhaven police chief. BreeÂ’s own threat investigation leads her down a dangerous path as well, jeopardizing the safety of her niece and nephew. Lastly, Greta, one of Matt FlynnÂ’s K-9 dogs, is put into service and sheÂ’s a rockstar! She brought an element that wonderfully enhanced the story.

the narrationÂ…
Traister is truly the voice of this series and skillfully handled a host of characters and plot lines. I enjoy her storytelling and how she gives a distinctive voice for Bree, Matt and Dana.

the bottom lineÂ…
I had a hard time putting this down as the suspense was wreaking havoc with me. IÂ’d hoped Dana would be given a romantic angle and IÂ’m extremely pleased where thatÂ’s headed. As engaged as I am in the mysteries and procedurals (they were outstanding), itÂ’s the personal growth of Bree, her acquired family and team in the SheriffÂ’s Office that keeps me moored in the series. Everything about it worked and IÂ’m loving the emphasis on the K-9 unit.
