Enough clever clues and shocking twists to satisfy even the most ambitious amateur sleuth!
Not everyone has a great relationship with their family. So when Henry Smith left his father, the Old Bastard, behind in the North Carolina Mountains, he was inclined to never look back. Ten years as a range detective on the Colorado Plateau has turned Henry into something of a legend. He is level-headed and sharp, and a top notch tracker. When a family wedding brings him back home, Henry ends up in the wrong place at the wrong time when a friend turns up dead. With the local police against him, an old girlfriend back in the picture, and a ton of family baggage weighing him down, Henry has no choice but to track the real killer on his own.
With a heady backdrop of rugged mountains and handsome cowboys, Muddy Waters is a decadent fictional treat. The investigation is the main story, but there are several interesting sub-plots flowing through the novel as well. Henry is the perfect hero for a crime thriller set in a rural location. He is strong, confident, mature, and at times funny.
Candace Carter has fashioned a brilliant who-dun-it story with enough clever clues and shocking twists to satisfy even the most ambitious amateur sleuth!
