Movieland by Lee Goldberg

4.0

This is book 4 in the series and it opens with a literal bang. Two female campers have been injured in Malibu Creek State Park in what looks like a shotgun attack and Eve and Duncan are called into investigate.
But the shotgun attack isn’t anything new to Duncan. For over 14 months there have been reports of shotgun incidents all around the Malibu Creek State Park, which Duncan believes are the work of a sniper, but he is stonewalled by his bosses in taking this theory any further.
But this time around, Duncan isn’t on his own. He has Eve to help him investigate and she isn’t one to be told what to do and where to investigate. Eve is always after the truth, no matter where it takes or how much danger it puts her in.
“Movieland” was probably my least favourite book in the series. I thought the sniper storyline wasn’t as exciting as other storyline’s in previous books. The best part of “Movieland” was the friendship between Duncan and Eve. I was worried going into this book about Duncan’s retirement edging closer and Eve losing her wingman at the station. But I liked the solution that eventuated.
Will definitely keep reading the series. 3.5 stars from me.
