A Bone to Pick
by Melinda Leigh
Another body is found in the small water locked town of Widow’s Island. This is the second installment of the Widow’s Island series, this time following Sherriff Tessa Black and her best friend’s brother Army Veteran Logan Wilde. When a body is found in the park that Logan oversees as a ranger, he feels the need to see the mystery through and find the suspect.
An artist is painting naked women, wives and widows, around the island; but suddenly is found murdered- slain with a harpoon. Was it an angry husband, a slighted muse, or a jealous lover?
As Tessa and Logan work together, they grow closer; but can Tessa handle the demons that live inside the veteran and can Logan put to rest the visions that plague his mind in order to solve the artist’s murder?
My one issue with this story is how often they bring up Logan’s PTSD- it begins to feel like it’s mentioned every few sentences. While I feel for the man, and am married to a veteran myself- it felt almost too focused on. There is so much more to Logan that his diagnosis, and the military members I know that suffer from PTSD don’t like to focus on it; wanting to focus more on who they are beyond their PTSD. While it is part of them, it isn’t solely who they are- and seems a bit insulting to focus so hard on it. I feel like the whole scenario could have been written better.
