True crime blogger, Erica Hart starts a new chapter in her life with a bang when a dark shadow darts into the mountain road to send her SUV off a cliff and to the bottom of Deep Creek Lake. Spencer’s newest addition to the police force, Dusty O’Meara assumes it was a bear. Erica is not so sure.
Soon afterward, contractors discover Konnor Langston’s body at the bottom of an abandoned swimming pool at the new summer home of Mac Faraday’s son.
With Police Chief David O’Callaghan on paternity leave, Deputy Chief Dusty O’Meara must lead the investigation in his first murder case since moving to Spencer. Not only does Dusty have to work under the shadow of the legendary Mac Faraday, but he also has to match wits with Erica, who is determined to find justice for Konnor, her childhood friend.
The police chief and Mac aren’t so difficult. Even Gnarly, the town’s canine mayor, is manageable if his authority is well-respected and he is kept entertained.
Erica Hart, Dusty finds, is more of a challenge. It wouldn’t be so difficult if she wasn’t so irresistible.

My thoughts on Shadow of Murder
Shadow of Murder is book fourteen of the Mac Faraday series from Lauren Carr.
This series just keeps getting better and better. Someday soon, I need to read them all in order.
I read the audiobook version of this tale and it was wonderful. The character representation and voice work of the narrator, Mike Alger fits perfectly for this story.
Lauren Carr weaves storylines together like no other author I’ve read. With a plethora of characters included in this tale, Mac and Gnarley are still my favorites. I did enjoy the newest residents of the town and the way they interacted with long-time faves, especially the Nancy Drew Crew.
There are many twists and turns throughout the story. I have to admit, I was a little surprised by most of them. This entry in the Mac Faraday series feels a bit darker but nevertheless, it’s still typical Lauren Carr gripping fiction.
I can’t wait to read the next in the series.
I received a copy of the book for the tour. This review is my honest, unbiased opinion.
