Murder in the Mountains

A Sheriff Elven Hallie Mystery, Book 2

By: Drew Strickland

Narrated by: Madison Niederhauser

A dead man in the woods. A corrupt game warden. A silver-tongued preacher.

And a whole lot of drugs.

When Sheriff Elven Hallie investigates a murder, the evidence seems self-explanatory. But when he digs in, things get more complicated.

Following a lead, he visits a revival in the woods led by smooth-talking preacher Spencer Caldwell. The hunters in the area are already angry, having filed numerous complaints about the operation. But it isn’t until Elven goes to see the man himself that he knows something is off.

If that wasn’t enough, game warden Jesse Parsons arrives in Dupray to assist in the murder investigation. But Elven quickly questions Jesse’s motives when he’s found being friendly with Hollis, the head of the Starcher criminal family.

When a witness is discovered, it leads to more questions. And a lot more bodies.

But when his deputy is put in danger, Elven knows he’s running out of time and must take a more direct approach to solve the crime.

Can he solve the murders before someone he loves is killed, or will his drastic measures cost him more than just his job?

If you’re a fan of C.J. Box’s Joe Pickett, Craig Johnson’s Longmire, and Jeff Carson’s David Wolf, then you will be sucked into this thrilling mystery by Drew Strickland!

good book

just like the first book keeps you on your toes all the way to the end

Great continuation of the series!

This series just gets better! The story was well done and kept me guessing about characters through out. I was on the edge of my seat all the way. Love the addition of Jesse. His character was such a great compliment to the others and I hope he makes another appearance. Cant wait for the next book to see how Elvins hunches play out!
