Synopsis
When Faith Hunter agrees to help PI Bob Roget find an identity thief at a local scrapbook retreat, her friendly croppers’ weekend quickly morphs into a dangerous one. As croppers share their own memories, a killer collects them for her new identity, and doesn’t appreciate Faith in the picture. Faith struggles to balance her professional, detecting and personal lives as threats and secrets keep her off-balance. Things turn deadly when a woman is killed and Faith is blackmailed. Truth and lies collide when Faith discovers croppers aren’t the only ones embellishing, and the results might end her life.
Review
What a great new installment in this series. The book starts off quickly and doesn’t slow down until it ends. There are several mysteries going on, but Christina does a great job of writing the story that there is no confusion with the characters. I like seeing Faith’s relationship with Steve progress but will she share her past with him? And what surprises does Steve have for Faith?
Since I am also a scrapbooker (and attend retreats!) it was easy to imagine myself there with the other croppers and the different personalities.
We give this book 4 paws!
About Christine Freeman
The Faith Hunter Scrap This Mystery series brings together Christina Freeburn’s love of mysteries, scrapbooking, and West Virginia. When not writing or reading, she can be found in her scrapbook room or at a crop. Alas, none of the real-life crops have had a sexy male prosecutor or a handsome police officer attending.
Christina served in the JAG Corps of the US Army and also worked as a paralegal, librarian, and church secretary. She lives in West Virginia with her husband, children, a dog, and a rarely seen cat except by those who are afraid or allergic to felines.
