DEADLY TRAIL--First of the Tempe Crabtree series
Because DEADLY OMEN was first to be published, DEADLY TRAIL is listed on Amazon as #0, which means readers who are following the series often miss this first book.
The tranquility of the
town of Bear Creek in the Southern Sierra is disrupted by the unusual death of
the owner of the local inn. Though resident Deputy Tempe Crabtree’s job is not
to investigate a murder case, she feels compelled to get involved when her
friend Nick Two John is arrested. She
puts the planning for her wedding aside and realized there are several people
who wanted the victim dead, including his wife. As she continues to discover
clues she puts her job, her wedding, and herself in danger.
This mystery introduces Tempe, her son, Blair, her fiance Hutch, and Nick Two John. The setting is the mountain community of Bear Creek with a focus on the Inn.
DEADLY TRAIL is the best place to start reading the series. And if you've read all the other, I suggest you go back and read this one.
