This is the 3rd book in the Cash Blackbear series and lived up to the first two mysteries.
I like Cash as a character, flawed and scarred by her past, fighting her demons. I appreciate that she’s maturing and making more healthy choices in this book, aka glad she’s putting Jim to off!
I enjoy her ways of assisting the sheriff’s department investing the crimes in her county. I did miss Sheriff Wheaten, he had a minor role in this book. I wish he had been there to help mentor her more during the legal tangles at the end.
The new characters in this book were great! I love Al and Jonesy. I really hope Jonesy continues to guide Cash and help her with her insights, and that we’ll get to know her at a deeper level.
It was a good twisted tale in the end, I loved the 1970’s interpretation of the villain’s root issues. It was a surprising outcome and unexpected.
But what made the book for me was the author notes at the end that described how Marcie Rendon came up with the story and twists! That was so cool to have a sneak into the process.
