A Field Guide to Homicide by Lynn Cahoon
4.0
It's time for another journey back to Colorado and Cat's writer's retreat. This retreat is different than others since there are two couples plus the college student from the local college. It is an interesting bunch and while they are featured in the book, I don't think that they were the main focus. The main characters were tied to Seth's past in the military and those that were in town for a reunion of sorts. I'm not sure we learned much about Seth's military buddies but that didn't stop me from thinking something was off about the deceased and those he served with all those years ago. I feel like there is so much more that Seth hasn't revealed yet about his time in the military and I wonder if more will be revealed in future books.
We discover a little bit more about Cat's deceased husband, Michael. The author has a way of keeping me engaged in this series because I want to know what he was involved with and how it will affect Cat. Especially since the dead body from Seth's unit has notes about Michael and others in his cabin. What is the secret? When will we learn more?
The mystery and the interactions between the various characters (Cat, Seth, Shauna, Uncle Pete, and Shirley) kept me engaged and made it hard for me to put the book down. I had my suspicions about the killer but there was more to the story than I ever expected. Shauna has some family issues that she hides from Cat for most of the book, but I'm glad she trusts their friendship and opens up about what is happening with her family.
Overall we give this book 4 paws up.
