Lost Cause

Review – Standoff

August 25, 2020 By The Suspense Zone

The Natchez Trace National Parkway stretches 444 miles from Nashville to Natchez, the oldest town on the Mississippi River. It’s the perfect road for a relaxed pleasure drive. Unfortunately for park ranger Luke Fereday, lately it’s being used to move drugs. Sent to Natchez to infiltrate the organization at the center of the drug ring, Luke arrives too late to a stakeout and discovers the body of his friend, park ranger John Danvers.

John’s daughter Brooke is determined to investigate her father’s murder, but things are more complicated than they first appear, and Brooke soon finds herself the target of a killer who will do anything to silence her. Luke will have his hands full keeping her safe. But who’s going to keep him safe when he realizes he’s falling–hard–for the daughter of the man he failed to save?

Award-winning author Patricia Bradley introduces you to a new series set in the sultry South that will have you wiping your brow and looking over your shoulder.

My thoughts : STANDOFF is book one in Ms. Bradley’s explosive new series. Set in the deep south, it will leave you experiencing the heat in more ways than one.

There is a host of characters that is overwhelmingly confusing at first, but if you keep reading you should be able to sort them all out. There is also a host of characters that might be “who-dun-it” and that kept me guessing though I did narrow it down to two.

I really liked Brooke and Luke.

I enjoyed this new series and it wasn’t overwhelmingly scary. I can’t wait to read more about this team of park rangers. Recommended.
