Blog Tour ~ Murder at the Highland Games

I was given this book to review from Netgalley and Bookouture for a fair and honest review.

When a fun day out in the Scottish Highlands turns fatal, there’s only one solution: call for Ally McKinley!

It’s the annual Locharran Highland Games and Ally McKinley has never seen her little village so busy or excited. Everyone’s enjoying the Scottish dancing, the bagpipes, and cheering the competitors on. But there’s a hitch in the proceedings when champion challenger Archie Armstrong drops dead in the middle of tossing the caber. Rushing to the scene, Ally is the first to spot that Archie’s death was no accident – this was murder!

Ally flings herself into a new investigation and soon discovers that more than one person may have had a murderous motive, including some of the current residents of her cosy little guesthouse. Patti, Archie’s glamourous wife, seems intent on acting like the perfect widow, but rumours of infidelity have been flying. Is her performance too good? Could her uncle, cranky gamekeeper Angus, have finally snapped, furious at Archie’s treatment of his niece? Or was it one of the frustrated local competitors, desperate to end Archie’s winning streak?

Determined to crack the case and fueled by more than one piece of her famous shortbread, Ally begins to narrow down her list of possible culprits, but is thrown for a loop when her chief suspect is found dead by the loch, a mysterious and threatening note clutched in their fingers. With a killer at large, can Ally finally uncover the truth? Or, as the sun sets over the highlands, will this game be her last?

I really like this series. I love the fact that the main character is a senior, but she doesn't act old. Not to say that sometimes she doesn't feel her age, but she just doesn't act elderly. She is also not overly silly or anything like that.

So in this one there are some foreigners from Canada who are visiting as one of them is a champion in the games from Canada and wanted to compete in Scotland. He is naturally hated because he isn't from Scotland, so it wasn't surprising that he ends up murder at the games, but would someone murder because he was winning? 

Of course, Ally is hosting the Canadian family at her B&B, so she is naturally curious and a bit invested in trying to figure out who might have done it from the competitors to the family. Another family member is murdered, and it seems that maybe someone has it out for the family. 

I think one of the things I liked about this one is that I felt that Ally was so busy with trying to help the family that she really didn't do a lot of sleuthing, a lot of what she found out just kind of came natural and she really didn't figure things out till it was a bit too late, kind of on accident. I really don't like when sleuths are to overly nosy or it seems like that is all they do and they are never at their actual work. So that was refreshing. I like that the detective doesn't mind her helping a bit with things by asking questions. I really like Ross her boyfriend too. 

The mystery was decent, but I figured things out even the motive so maybe it was to easy to figure out or I am just getting better at figuring them out...lol. A few times I found myself asking Ally why she wasn't thinking about this or that as it was on my mind...lol. It was kind of fun to find that I was right, so it didn't really lessen the enjoyment or anything. 

I think if you like cozy mysteries this is a fun series and I would highly recommend.

Dee MacDonald

Dee MacDonald grew up on an isolated farm in the Scottish Highlands. An only child, she’d often get fed up of reading and listening to a crackling radio, so her mother encouraged her to draw and to write ‘wee stories’, which she’d sew together into little books.

As an adult, her working life took her all over the globe as an air stewardess, into the world of TV, where she worked in Market Research and Sales, and then into hospitality, running B&Bs for over ten years.

After first finding her love of writing as a little girl, Dee became a published author of cosy crime and women’s fiction in her seventies. She lives by the sea in Cornwall with her husband, and has one son and two grandsons.

I can't believe we are about to head into April in a few days. Time sure does fly. Hope everyone is doing well, the weather has been so crazy lately. We have gone from 90 to 40 and back up to 70 over the last few days. I would just like some nice spring weather! Well, without storms.

Nothing has happened this week worth really talking about, my life is pretty boring.

What I read:

• Murder at the Highland Games - Fourth book in the Ally McKinley series and I really enjoyed it. This is a good series.
• Outlaw Mountain - Seventh book in the Joanna Brady series and I really enjoyed it.
• Battle Ground - Finished up my reread of Dresden Files, now I am ready to tackle the new book. 

What I am Reading:

• Come Through Your Door - The latest book in the County Kerry series. This is her more gritty mystery and not cozy.
• Happy Are the Meek - This I am struggling with a bit, the writing style is very different even for a book from the 80s.

Hope you all have a great week!

Two Bloggers One Series ~ Broken by Karin Slaughter (Will Trent #4)

 So I am pretty sure that I am not as big of a fan of this series as Barb, but maybe after this one they will get better. After you see what I had to say, go on over and check out what Barb thought at Booker T's Farm.

When Special Agent Will Trent arrives in Grant County, he finds a police department determined to protect its own and far too many unanswered questions about a prisoner’s death. He doesn’t understand why Officer Lena Adams is hiding secrets from him. He doesn’t understand her role in the death of Grant County’s popular police chief. He doesn’t understand why that man’s widow, Dr. Sara Linton, needs him now more than ever to help her crack this case.

While the police force investigates the murder of a young woman pulled from a frigid lake, Trent investigates the police force, putting pressure on Adams just when she’s already about to crack. Caught between two complicated and determined women, trying to understand Linton’s passionate distrust of Adams, and the complexities of this insular town, Trent will unleash a case filled with explosive secrets—and encounter a thin blue line that could be murderous if crossed.

I left out a few details from the blurb of this book, and I suggest that if you haven't read the Grant County series yet that you read it before you read Will Trent because it will spoil something major from that series.

In this one we are going back to Grant County, and I hope it's for the last time. A young woman was murdered and the young man who was accused of it has killed himself while in custody or did something else happen. 

Sara Linton is back in Grant County to visit family, and she was brought in to talk to the young man because she was the only person he would talk to as she use to be his doctor when he was a little kid. When they get there, the man is dead and Sara wants to know what happened and ask Will Trent to look into things.

There are a lot of secrets in Grant County, especial within the police and Trent has to figure out what is going on and why Sara has it out for Lena Adams and try and figure out what happened to the murdered girl and everything else. 

So, I despise Lena with a passion, she is from Grant County series, and I hated her there and so it really lowered my enjoyment of this story. I also hate Frank so that didn't help either. I want to be done with Grant County, and it seemed like maybe this will be the last one set there. Let's get back to Atlanta and stay there. I like Will, but he is a very different type of character and there are some things about him that I don't like and some things I can't talk about because I don't want to spoil the Grant County series by mentioning them. 

I liked the ending of the story, but there was to much Lena and Frank, so I just didn't care much for the story as a whole.

Feed Your TBR #13

It's time to FEED YOUR TBR and I have a couple books you might find interesting!! I am curious about these books though I may not be anticipating them. These picks are almost out so not a lot of waiting involved.  (Feed Your TBR is my version of Waiting on Wednesday now hosted by Wishful Endings)

Hatchet meets Survivor in this high-action, humor-filled middle grade adventure about two kids stranded in the wilderness, whose annoyance with each other rivals the roaring rapids and ferocious predators they must face.

12-year-old Sadie Hahn didn’t plan to eat grubs on camera to win a contest. And she definitely didn’t plan to win first prize—a guest appearance on a Youtube show hosted by America’s favorite 13-year-old survivalist Radley Shaw. But she’ll do anything to cheer up her little brother Silas, who’s too young to qualify.

Rad has millions of followers and exactly zero real-life friends, so the contest is a great chance for him to hang out with kids his own age. But it’s hate-at-first-sight when Silas throws a wrench in his plan and Sadie decides Rad is just a clueless poser who doesn’t know the first thing about survival.

Disaster strikes when their scripted rafting trip turns into a real fight for survival. Lost in the mountains, Rad and Sadie must find shelter, build a fire, forage for food and try not to become food for a hungry predator. But can they stop bickering long enough to hack it in the wilderness? And will that be enough to keep them alive?

Sounds like a fun middle grade survival adventure! Comes out March 31st from Knopf Books for Young Reader.

When a murder occurs in a small town in Upstate New York, retired police detective Graham Sanderson, is drawn back into a vortex of violence, deception, and a series of murders which get dangerously personal.

Graham Sanderson thought he’d left it all behind. His years as a Washington, DC, homicide detective, his tragically dead wife, pain, violence. Taking over his father’s house in the remote Finger Lakes region of rural New York, and looking after his shut-in brother, Tommy, seemed like a respite. That is, until the first body is found.

The chief of the town’s small police jurisdiction, who is also a family friend, asks for Graham’s assistance. Graham’s instincts immediately kick in and he soon discovers there’s more to the area – the people, its brutally quiet, sophisticated hierarchies – than he or his family ever knew.

David Swinson's latest novel is a soulful, rural noir story about the extremities to which it pushes a community, the fear it instills in the hearts of adherents and doubters alike, and need for it nevertheless. As Graham delves deeper into the strange and then stranger circumstances of the murders, his own beliefs become challenged. What do you finally stand for when you’ve got nothing left to lose?

This sounds like an interesting mystery. Comes out March 31st from Mulholland Books.

Fil Furetto is a terrible criminal. He can’t pick a lock or crack a safe, and he’s hardly menacing. The only things he’s good at are cooking and watching over the arena his crime family calls home. But then he stumbles upon a mysterious Someone is planning to sabotage the frontrunner at the arena’s next big event, The Baskerville Dog Show. Fil's Uncle Sal is furious—no one does nefarious acts under the Furettos' roof without his say so!—and tasks Fil with protecting the defenseless dog.

Dot Hernandez is a Corgi with a vision. Win the Baskerville, collect the prize money, and finally launch her designer doggy fashion line. So when a scrawny ferret shows up with a warning that someone is trying to take her out of the competition, she’s skeptical.

But as mysterious mishaps befall her, Dot is forced to admit there’s something fishy at the dog show, and she agrees to team up with Fil to find the culprit. Is it a canine competitor? One of their human trainers? Or an old enemy out to ruin the Furettos? Only one thing seems if they don’t figure it out, both Dot's fashion dreams and Fil’s family could be in danger.

This middle grade book comes out from Storytide on March 31st. It looks so cute!! 

A hijacked New York subway train, an anonymous killer, and a young man trapped by his hidden past converge in a breathless, breathtaking thriller

Do not turn off your phone
Do not get off the train
I know who you really are

Fired and walked out by security on his first day at his new job in New York City, Ben Cross thought his day couldn't get worse. But he couldn't be more wrong. Getting on the 1 train headed uptown, Ben starts receiving text messages from an anonymous killer, showing that they've already killed someone, then pointedly killing another as they got off the train to prove they aren't bluffing and to ensure Ben follows orders. But Ben wasn't picked at random—he has a history that no one is supposed to know.

At the same time, A NYPD detective, Kelly Hendricks, is on punishment duty with the transit police. The first one on the scene after the first murder, she gets on the train to find out what is really going on.

Switching rapidly between Cross and Hendricks, as the hijacked 1 train heads from South Ferry to 181st, the secret to the killer lies in Ben's own history—why he's been targeted and punished.

This sounds like an interesting thriller and comes out March 24th from Minotaur Books.

So February was kind of a rough month for me and I kept forgetting to make a Week in Review. Hopefully March will go better. So, in February, I got a really bad case of poison ivy and man it about took me out. I was so miserable! I am finally getting back to normal.

I can't believe we are already ending our first week in March! It's been pretty decent here weather wise but it's storm season now and I am not happy. We did have a nasty storm Friday night, but it didn't get to bad at our house but sirens did go off.

Hope y'all had a great week! Happy reading!

Birds of a feather solve crime together in this riveting middle grade mystery! When eight endangered macaws are stolen from a bird sanctuary in the Mayan ruins of Copán, four sleuthing cousins must find out who took them—and why.

Nico and his cousins don't have much in common, but they're all excited to visit the Mayan ruins at Copán and witness the release of the scarlet macaws. Nearly extinct in Honduras, eight of these majestic birds are about to be introduced to a brand new bird sanctuary. But on the eve of the big day the birds are stolen!

Who could have planned this bewildering bird heist—and why? Nico and his cousins are determined to find out—and anyone could be a poachers, developers, Mama's annoying novio . . . The investigation will take them from bustling downtown Copán to the mist-shrouded ruins of Macaw Mountain, uniting the cousins as they unravel a plot far stranger than any of them could have imagined.

This fun sounding middle grade book comes out on March 10th and I can't wait to get my hands on it to try!

Lila Shaw stopped trusting anyone the minute her husband went to jail for white-collar crime, taking their country club lifestyle with him. Now Lila is broke, friendless, and losing her house—and to make things worse, her true-crime-obsessed daughter, Bea, was just expelled from fourth grade. Desperate for a fresh start, Lila agrees to temporarily move in and clean out an abandoned junk-filled apartment in Richmond’s palatial Primrose building. The luxurious Virginia landmark is filled with retirees who start their days early drinking bourbon and gossiping, in that order.

Soon after Lila’s arrival, the Primrose is thrown into chaos. The owner of the building’s splendid penthouse has died and in his final days he set up a two-million-dollar reward for any resident who helps to solve the 21-year-old murder of his granddaughter at the Primrose. A fan of all detective stories and true-crime podcasts, Bea is inspired to investigate. They really could use the reward money, so Lila reluctantly agrees, in a questionable attempt at family bonding. She’s certain the killer is long-gone after all these years anyway. That is, until another resident is murdered… and Lila becomes the prime suspect.

Now Lila needs to solve both murders to avoid jail, and even worse, losing her daughter to her snobby in-laws. To catch a killer and clear Lila's name, she and Bea must rely on their elderly neighbors—Jasper, a shy former detective, and Evelyn, an opinionated socialite—along with Nate, a good-looking reporter who keeps appearing at the most inconvenient moments. As the amateur sleuths expose the truth about the Primrose, Lila hopes she can also unravel the trickiest parts of her own life and start fresh.

This one sounds like it could be a lot of fun! Now it came out yesterday, but I never get to books I add on here till later so still feeding my TBR! :) So go grab you a copy! 

eARC Review ~ The Sower's Secret by Brock Eastman, Shaun Stevenson

 I received this book from Netgalley and the publisher for a fair and honest review.

A hilarious action-adventure series for Christian kids set in a town where the parables of Jesus literally come to life.

When Anthony and his mom move to the seaside town of Parable Port, they’re just hoping for a fresh start. Anthony soon finds out that there’s something unusual about this little town: it’s a place where Jesus’ parables come to life in surprising ways.

The adventure begins when a flock of orange birds stalks Anthony and flowering vines grow everywhere, knocking people out cold with their pollen. In the good old days, the living parables would help the town to flourish. But now? Something or someone is messing with the Parable of the Sower and causing chaos.

With the help of his new friends Duck, J.R., Grace, and Brooklyn, Anthony must uncover clues, decipher riddles, and stay one step ahead of the birds and vines to save the town—before it’s too late.

This Christian book series for middle schoolers features:

• A map of Parable Port—Follow along as the kids run around town to solve the mystery
• Chapter opener illustrations—Comedic and engaging artwork brings the story to life
• Spiritual lessons—At the back of the book, expand your Bible knowledge with a kid-friendly devotional that explains the Parable of the Sower
• Penguincast podcast—Get the inside scoop from the characters themselves with a QR code for J.R.’s boots-on-the-ground interviews and analysis
• A fast-paced story line that makes it perfect for reluctant readers
• Hilarious antics including an electric blue Cadillac escape car, a secret passage, and a silkie chicken chase will make you laugh out loud

Join this fun-loving friend crew for their very first faith-filled adventure in Parable Port! Perfect for boys and girls ages 8-12.

The Sower's Secret is the first book in the Parable Port series, it's a Christian middle grade story where the parables from the bible come to life. 

Anthony and his mom are new to Parable Port, they haven't even had much time to get use to anything when strange things start happening. Anthony meets a kid called Duck who takes him around town where they see some weird vines growing but don't think much of it till later. Then Anthony spots a strange bird that seems to be staring at him. 

During Sunday school the teacher is telling them about the Parable of the Sower and she is using props and one of those props is a bird that looks exactly like the one Anthony seen. Not to much later a lot of things start to happen, and the teacher has just enough time to warn the kids they will have to save the town as the thorny vines have a nasty flower that is putting people to sleep. 

Anthony and the Sunday School group along with a not church kid, J.R. who fancies herself a podcaster must work together to figure out what is going on, what it has to do with the parable of the sower and how they can stop things before the town is overgrown with vines. Lurking around now and then is a sinister character, but it's mostly all about the group of kids, using their faith and what they have learned from the church story to save the day. 

One of my favorite characters what the grumpy older Mrs. Grumperoust who helped the kids for a bit, she was spunky and weird but fun. This book is also full of fun illustrations, and it looks like there might be a podcast to go with hit from J.R. (coming soon). 

This was a very fun and interesting way to get kids to learn about a parable from the bible in a way that isn't really preachy but very adventurous. Teaching kids about hope, faith and friendship. I am very much looking forward to the next book!

Two Bloggers, One Book ~ Shadow of the Mothman by Hunter Shea

Buddy Reading a Hunter Shea is something Barb and I have done often, but it's been a while. He finally came out with a new Cryptid book and so we jumped on it. Not quite what I am use too so after seeing what I thought, go check out Barb's thoughts at Booker T's Farm.

First There Was Dread and Death

In 1967, the town of Point Pleasant, West Virginia, was terrorized by a winged creature stalking the night skies, along with a host of other bizarre and frightening paranormal phenomena. It all came to an end with the tragic collapse of the Silver Bridge on a cold December evening.

Then It Returned

Ken Orsulak survived the Silver Bridge disaster, only to awaken from his coma sixteen years later. A man out of time and confined to a wheelchair now, he’s taken back to his childhood home of Remington, Massachusetts. By day, the bucolic farming town is just as it was when he left in 1967. By night, shrieks, strange shadows and unexplainable lights send ripples of fear throughout its residents. Something sinister has descended on the town. Has the terror of Point Pleasant come for Ken?

Now All Hell Has Broken Loose

The creature has a name – Mothman. The high strangeness surrounding the monster defies explanation. Ken and the town fight for answers, then find themselves fighting for their lives. Enter John Keel, the stalwart reporter who made the mysterious cryptid infamous. Has he arrived just in time, or is he too late to save Remington from the unknowable intentions of the Mothman? Remington is coming apart at the seams. Will anyone be left standing when…and if…the Mothman’s reign of terror ends?

A cryptid tale of existential dread unlike any other. Shadow of the Mothman will pull you into a world of mythical beasts, UFO folklore, men in black, and ghostly visions. The nostalgia of the 80s is plunged into the mystifying world of In Search Of in this love letter to the beasts and enigmas that plague our nightmares.

First let's just gaze at that awesome cover!

This starts out with the popular incident that happened in the 60's that turned into what we all know as the Mothman Prophecies, and the main male character was 16 and survives but was in a comma for 16 years and now it's 1983 and Ken has missed a whole decade. He suddenly wakes up and all is very different, but he can't remember much of what happened from that day on the bridge. 

Everything he remembers is through the eyes of a 16-year-old boy not a 30 something man. His girlfriend at 16 is now all grown up and a nurse that has been taking care of him, putting her life on hold for the young man she had loved. His mother has been by his side the whole time hoping for him to wake up and now that he is, they are going back home to Remington, the small town he grew up in. Oh, and he has been paralyzed from the accident on the bridge, so he has that to deal with.

Ken spends a lot of his days trying to figure out what this new world is like, he watches new shows, trying to get down the lingo and is amazed at everything around him, but also feels very awkward as he is an adult, but his mind is still 16.

Once back in Remington, it seems like some very strange things start to happen. Strange things being seen in the night sky, a winglike creature swooping down on people, animals being killed. Ken starts to remember thing from the bridge, he remembers at thing with red eyes and he is sure it's come back for him and is terrorizing the town. Is it there to harm or to warn?

I will start with the fact that I really didn't know a lot about the Mothman and so I guess my expectations where a little off as I thought this was going to be like other cryptid creatures and it would go through chomping on people, etc. and that is not at all what I got, so I guess I was a bit disappointed as that is what I come to expect from a Shea creature feature. Not to say that it wasn't an interesting story once I decided I wasn't getting what I wanted. 

I thought some things were very strange, the fact that Cindy's love at 16 was so big that she became a nurse just to take care of Ken and still loved him. That is a powerful first love and kind of weird. There was a strange moment when Ken was crushing on a girl in her late teens, but you had to remember his mind was still feeling very much like a 16-year-old, but at least it didn't get to weird. The ending once it started came very fast and had a lot of action but was just different from what I had in my head. Oh, and also, there were animal deaths and I can handle most but not a dog. So you have been warned.

It also had a lot of fun and interesting side characters.

I think if you are a fan of Mothman and no more about this cryptid you might enjoy this one.

Hope those up north in the cold are doing okay. I don't understand how you all do it. I am such a cold wimp, so I am extremely happy we are having warmer weather here.

We were not sure if we were going to be able to afford more wood or where to get it as the cold snap had everyone scrambling for wood, but we managed to get more, thanks to good people and an old school mate who use to cut wood for us as he was able to do so again and it was cheaper!

This week is going to be warm to, and I think I will be doing some outside work and taking advantage of the above average temps. At least I can listen to audiobooks. :)

What I read

• Christmas in Snowflake Canyon - The sixth book in the Hope's Crossing series and it was a lot of fun.
• Sea Monster Conundrum - The third book in the Misfits and it was fun but a lot different than the first two.
• Going Rogue in Red Rye County - This is the first book in the Secure One series and very fast paced and enjoyable.
• Realm of Shadows - The 4th book in the Alliance Vampire series and though the author follows a formula it was still entertaining.
• Miss Truelove Beckons - One of my retro romances and it was cute.

What I am Reading

• Time of the Temptress - Just started this retro romance and only on page 10.
• Hand of Evil - Third book in the Ali Reynolds and just started it today so on page 41.

Let me know how your week has been.
