Telling Lies

A Sam Mason Mystery, Book 1

By: L. A. Dobbs

Narrated by: Rudy Sanda

The small police force of White Rock, New Hampshire is still reeling from the death of Officer Tyler Richardson when they are called to the scene of the accidental drowning of an out-of-town camper. But Chief Sam Mason and Sergeant Jody Harris soon discover the drowning was no accident. Someone murdered Lynn Palmer and staged the scene to make it look that way.

With a pool of suspects who aren't telling the truth and a corrupt mayor who wants the case solved yesterday, Sam and Jo follow a puzzling trail of clues with a surprise ending. And when a stray dog points them in the right direction, Sam discovers the killer is closer than he thought.

Just when Sam and Jo think they can rest after having solved Lynn's murder, a shocking discovery proves that sometimes even those you trust can be telling lies.

Slow and simple

The story is very slow and simple leaving no suspence. The way that the plot folds out is actually boring.

Characters were like friends! I’d love to meet the white oak police department!!

So…will there be a sequel?? I want to know what Tyler was up to or who killed him!!!

A good who done it story

It kept me guessing until the end. A bunch of friends and colleagues go camping, when one of them ends up dead. Was it one of them, or someone in the town? And who is keeping secrets from who? Although a bit far fetched, I loved Lucy the extra smart dog in the story too.

Really enjoyed this book.

I really liked the characters and the small town feel in this book. Looking forward to more.

Very good book.

Easy listening. Good mystery. Good Characters. Loved the dog. Will listen to the next ones in this series.
