Book in excellent condition, at a great price and very quick delivery too so many thanks indeed.

A very good story that kept me going till the very end. The characters were awesome and will keep reading into her next book!

Whenever I am in a reading slump, I usually gravitate to mysteries as the pacing can get me back into my reading game. The pacing of this book was great, from page to page and chapter to chapter, I wanted to see where this would all end up. But the thing that didn't completely work for me, was the amount of storylines trying to maintain in one book. I felt as though the author was piling and piling on and at a certain point it seemed too much.A young woman is found dead in a corn field and not just any corn field but one that is fighting the formation of big agricultural companies and trying to keep farming small, so they already have enough drama on their hands before a dead body is found. This is the first murder of a few that happen in the book and slowly but surely the reader finds out how everything is connected. Following a young investigator Riley Fisher, the reader is taken on a ride to solve all of the things.The first in a series of two that follow Riley Fisher as she investigates crimes in her home town and I did enjoy her as a character so hope to read the second one and see if the plot gets a little more pulled together in a sequel.

This book had a good story and a good premise for it. However I think it took a little too long to get to the point of what was happening. I have no doubt that large corporate Ag is corrupt, just like slot of other corporations. I feel that that aspect could have developed a little sooner.

Eh. Not my cup of tea, or bag of popcorn, if you must. Maybe I just don’t go for American gothic and farm murder like I used to. Writerly, just a little dull. Like, the children of the corn called, they want their field back.
