A Deadly Wilderness by Kelly Irvin Blog Tour/Book Review

 

I received a gifted copy and am providing a review.

This book started out immediately with the crime and takes the reader through all the ins and outs and ups and downs of solving the primary crime, which, like all good crime books, leads to more … you guessed it, crime!

In this tale, we meet Detective Ray Johnson. Ray is a man who is filled with some pretty complex emotions. Because of his job, the woman he is interested in is scared to be involved with him, fearing something might happen. So, he’s stuck between doing what he loves and making a career change … but is she worth it?

Susana Martinez-Acosta is the lady in question. Susana has her own grief that she carries around. She’s also a mom to Marco, so her first instinct is to do right by Marco. On the other hand, she has to wrestle with not only her grief but deciding if Ray is worth her heart.

Ray and Susana have an interesting dynamic that plays out in all their on again/off again shenanigans.

We also have the Doyles. The Doyles are the rich family, the hoity-toity ones that a good story needs. The Doyles consist of Mr. and Mrs. Doyle, Kevin and Elaine (two of their children, Joey (the victim), and Melody (Joey’s wife), along with Melody and Joey’s two children. If you enjoy a story that contains some family drama, the Doyles fit that category, especially the relationship between Melody and Mrs. Doyle.

Lalo … Lalo seems to be a puppet and the one pulling his strings came as quite a surprise.

Family drama, love interests, a rich family, crimes that seem unsolvable, and a walk in the park are sure to keep you turning the pages. Oh, and Deborah (Ray’s partner) … she is a very colorful, very believable character, having her own past to deal with. There is also an underlying layer of healing throughout these pages.
