My Review

Detecting Secrets is the third book in the Deputies of Anderson County series, but can easily be read as a stand alone novel. From the very first moment, readers are dropped into a tense situation as Charlotte and her SAR dog search for a missing, pregnant teenager. The danger builds from the very beginning and continues at a fast pace throughout the novel.

This was a book that was almost impossible for me to set down. The author kept me guessing about who was behind all of the mayhem. Although it was fairly easy to determine the “why” behind the missing babies and pregnant teens, the “who” was a much more complicated answer.

I enjoyed the way the attraction built between the two main characters and how important Dennis’ daughter, Amelia, was to him. The way Charlotte and Dennis worked together and quickly began to form a friendship that could possibly turn into more was believable to me.

I have enjoyed each story in this series. All of them have had a good mixture of romance, suspense, and growth in the faith journeys of the main characters.

(4.5 stars)

I received a complimentary copy of this book. All opinions are my own.

About the Author

Sami A. Abrams

Award-winning, bestselling author Sami Abrams grew up hating to read. It wasn’t until her 30’s that she found authors that captured her attention. Now, most evenings, you can find her engrossed in a Romantic Suspense. In her opinion, a crime and a little romance is the recipe for a great story.

She lives in Northern California, but she will always be a Kansas girl at heart. She has a love of sports, family, and travel. However, a cabin at Lake Tahoe writing her next story is definitely at the top of her list.
