This is my second book by [a:Heather Gudenkauf|2875124|Heather Gudenkauf|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1531697584p2/2875124.jpg] and I love her style of writing, she wastes no time in getting to the crux of the plot and that is what all the Crime Fiction/Mystery readers loves the most. No unnecessary drama and talk of climates or social issues. She writes pure mystery. ( Like [a:Agatha Christie|123715|Agatha Christie|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1589991473p2/123715.jpg]).
I must admit, like her previous novel, i could narrow down on the suspect, but, still loved the way story telling. [a:Heather Gudenkauf|2875124|Heather Gudenkauf|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1531697584p2/2875124.jpg] is becoming my favorite writer.
Oh yes... This book is definitely a goodReads.
Liked it, Loved it and would Love to read more by the Author.

Okay - so put this book next on your list. Seriously! I finished it in a little over 3 hours - it was AMAZING!! I've never read a book before which had a deaf lead character. It was a page-turning thriller that had unexpected twists. I found myself jumpy & scared while trying to imagine life this way. What a great read!!

“When a tragic accident leaves nurse Amelia Winn deaf, she spirals into a depression that ultimately causes her to lose everything that matters—her job, her husband, David, and her stepdaughter, Nora. Now, two years later and with the help of her hearing dog, Stitch, she is finally getting back on her feet. But when she discovers the body of a fellow nurse in the dense bush by the river, deep in the woods near her cabin, she is plunged into a disturbing mystery that could shatter the carefully reconstructed pieces of her life all over again.
As clues begin to surface, Amelia finds herself swept into an investigation that hits all too close to home. But how much is she willing to risk in order to uncover the truth and bring a killer to justice?”

Excellent thriller/mystery with tense interactions and twisty reveals. The suspense added by having a deaf MC was a great element.
