All We Buried by Elena Taylor Book Review

 

I received this book as a gift.

Have you met Bet? Her name is Elizabeth, but folks call her Bet. The premise is Bet being lured back home by her dad because he was sick. Her position as sheriff in her hometown was just supposed to be temporary. Now she’s up for re-election against Dale. There’s some animosity there. Bet has also inherited her dad’s dog, Schweitzer. Schweitzer adds some realness to this tale.

Bet finds herself in all kinds of situations. She’s adapting to her new position and wondering if she wants to be re-elected. She’s coming face-to-face with some realities that are just now surfacing from her past. She’s forced to face some of the people that she grew up with, one who caused her teenage heartache. They’ve all grown up and some have moved on but came back to Collier, but they all have some long-buried secrets. It’s up to Bet and her team to find the truth.

I enjoyed getting to know Bet, so to speak. While she is dealing with a lot of emotional ‘stuff,’ she also maintains her professionalism and does her best to not let her personal feelings get in the way of solving the mystery she is presented with. I like strong female characters and Bet does not disappoint in that aspect. While she’s a bit afraid to accept some of the truths she uncovers, she doesn’t shy away from finding them. If you like a police procedural with a female lead, I’d give this one a go. I’m looking forward to the next book, A Cold, Cold World. It’ll be interesting to see what Bet finds herself up against.
