Candle Bearclaw, a gifted computer analyst recruited out of college by the CIA, resigns her position after fifteen years. She returns to her sleepy hometown only to discover her childhood crush has also returned and a violent crime has been committed.

My Thoughts:

Candle is more than ready for the next chapter of her life. She goes back to where her life started. There’s a traveling companion who has a second chance at a happy life. As they settle into their new start on their lives together, Candle reconnects with a few people from her past. One who will help her solve a mystery.

As I follow Candle getting settled into her second chance at a new life, there are hints of something “otherworldly” going on. Having part of the story revolve over a certain holiday, just adds to the paranormal aspect. Add to that, the family’s native history in their DNA gives the story a connection to my own family history. I haven’t read a lot of mysteries but this is just a reminder what I may have missed had this not been on my tablet.

The author gave me a new series to follow. I can’t believe that I’ve never heard of her before or read any of the several books she has in her arsenal. What better way to find a new to you author than to start with the first book of a new series. This is one of those stories that you don’t want to rush through.

Having a chance to sit back and relax is the best way to enjoy a tale that you can get lost in. My area is just beginning to get the heat of summer. I can’t wait to read this book a second time when Fall starts to make its appearance. It’s the time of year when the air gets crisp and temperatures cool. Then I can pull out a blanket to cuddle in, have a cup of hot apple cider, and get reacquainted with the author and Candle.

EXCERPT:

When she drove up the circle driveway, a chill shot up her spine, then a strange feeling came over her, almost like someone was watching. Reaching under the seat of her SUV, she pulled out her handgun, checked the weapon to make sure it was loaded, chambered a round, and tucked it in the back waistband of her jeans, covering it with her shirt and jacket. She backed out then drove the entire driveway more slowly, checking the perimeter. Nothing. The cell phone hadn't chirped to alert her of a breach, but she checked her outside surveillance cameras, then the ones inside her home anyway. Again nothing. She shrugged off the feeling and stepped out of her SUV. Gun drawn, she flicked off the safety and turned on the laser. It didn't hurt to be safe rather than sorry.

Peeking in the window, she saw the alarm keypad was still set and secure. Then she walked around the house, entered through the back door, closed and relocked it, deactivated the alarm. Nothing was out of place. Part of her wished she'd brought Terrabyte along. Though still young, the pups tracking ability was well-developed. Terra would know if someone were in or around the cabin since they left. Back to the wall, she moved carefully through each room, nothing. When she was sure the house was clear, she sat down at the computer, laying the gun next to it. Warning windows were popped up everywhere on the screen. Someone had tried to hack into her system but hadn't gotten very farHer throat went dry as she read the message. “Poking around where you don't belong is dangerous business. Carl's death was unfortunate but an accident. Leave it be or pay the consequences.”

Fingers posed over the keyboard. She started to X out of the message but stopped. If this was a disintegrating message, she would have no proof it ever existed. Taking out her cell phone, she took a picture of the screen. The handle on the front door jiggled. She grabbed her gun and jumped up, making her way to the front bay window.
