Larissa Reinhart is now on tour with CLP Blog Tours and Hijack in Abstract
Summary:
With a classical series sold and a portrait commissioned, Cherry Tucker’s art career is in Georgia overdrive. But when the sheriff asks Cherry to draw a composite sketch of a hijacker, her life takes a hairpin as the composite leads to a related murder, her local card-sharking buddy Max Avtaikin becomes bear bait and her nemesis labels the classical series “pervert art.”
Cherry’s jamming gears between trailer parks, Atlanta mansions, and trucker bars searching for the hijacker who left a widow and orphan destitute. While she seeks to help the misfortunate and save her local reputation, Cherry’s hammer down attitude has her facing the headlights of an oncoming killer.
Review:
I was super exited get back into Cherry’s series, because I loved Still Life in Brunswick Stew. This mystery read was pretty intense, with lots of different elements and sub-plots woven together to give us a thrill. I’ve been becoming a pretty big fan of southern books as well, so pair that with my love of mysteries and what a winner! It was fun watching Cherry and Max do their weird dance shuffle dance step around each other, and I will say the last few chapters made this book really hard to put down – so much action! I think I liked Still Life just a touch more but I still really enjoyed this one. I would check out this series if you haven’t yet!
