Blurb:
Returning
from a stint as part of a task force on violent crime, Randy Detweiler is eager
to reunite with Sarah Tucker in Pine Hills, but she’s having second thoughts
about their relationship. Can she deal with a cop who gets called away at a
moment’s notice, especially one who won’t talk about his job?
Their
reunion is cut short when a body is discovered and rumors fly that it’s the
work of a serial killer. To make matters worse, the Town Council might disband
their police department, and Randy's under added pressure to solve the murder
before they take action. Forced to work under the radar, Randy struggles to
balance work with a shaky relationship.
Sarah
can’t cope with apparently meaning less to Randy than his job. Should she force
him to choose between his job and the “us” she envisions for the two of them?
All bets are off when Sarah herself becomes a suspect in Randy’s case. Before
long, it’s more than their relationship that’s in danger.
A
sequel to Finding Sarah, this book was previously published by Cerridwen Press,
but has been updated for this edition.
About the Author:
Terry
Odell was born in Los Angeles and now makes her home in Divide, Colorado. An
avid reader (her parents tell everyone they had to move from their first home
because she finished the local library), she always wanted to "fix"
stories so the characters did what she wanted—in books, television, and the
movies. Once she began writing, she found this wasn't always possible, as
evidenced when the mystery she intended to write rapidly became a romance.
However,
her entry into the world of writing can be attributed to a "mistake"
when her son mentioned the Highlander television series on a visit home. Being
the "good mother" she began watching the show and soon connected with
the world of fanfiction—first as a reader, then as a critique giver, and then,
one brave weekend, she wrote her first short story.
Things
snowballed and soon she was writing her first original novel. Much later, she
mentioned something about a recent Highlander episode to her son, and he said,
"Oh, I've never actually watched the show, I just thought the concept was
cool." Little did he know what he'd started.
With
a degree in Psychology from UCLA, she loves getting into the minds of her
characters, turning them loose in tight spots and seeing what they do. Too
often, they surprise her.
Review by Rochelle:
I
received this book in return for an honest review.
I
am greatly enjoying this series, and I especially appreciate the fact that each
book stands alone. It’s not necessary to read Saving Sarah in order to understand Hidden Fire, nor was there a cliff-hanger ending. Yea! (But I
highly recommend Saving Sarah. It’s good!) Again, the characters were deeply
drawn, the pacing was page-burning, and the return trip to Pine Hills was
pleasant.
I
have to say, however, that for a small town with no crime, they’ve certainly
kept police detective Randy Detweiler busy solving murders and… well, read Hidden Fire. I’m not telling what was in
those broken mugs in Sarah’s shop, That Special Something.
