DANGEROUS GROUND (Leah Nash Mysteries Book #6) by Susan Hunter is another well written mystery addition to the Leah Nash series. Ms. Hunter not only gives the reader a twisted and clever mystery plot, but also entertaining and witty fully fleshed characters.
It is true crime author Leah Nash’s 15-year high school reunion and almost everyone is excited for the return of Ryan Mallory, the golden boy who made it in Hollywood.
But not Leah and not his killer.
Leah is once again embroiled in a mystery and looking for a killer.
Every time I return to Leah’s world, I know I am going to be entertained by her hard-headedness, snarky wit and all the well-developed secondary characters around her. Ms. Hunter’s mystery plot pulled me in and kept me engaged and guessing until the end.
I recommend this addition to the Leah Nash mystery series and once you read it, you are going to want to read them all.
This is a mystery about people’s feelings, how cruel people can sometimes be and…it’s about murder. All of this is interspersed amongst a crime reporter having come back home to buy and try to save a failing newspaper. If you come from a small town like I did, we can all identify with the failing newspaper problem. But Leah Nash really has to save this one since she has invested a great deal of money in the venture and for her own sense of self as well.
The author, Susan Hunter, has done a good job here of describing the town, the scenes and the characters that live there. She made them very real which always increases the satisfaction in a story. The plot of the story itself evokes memories from our youth and also weaves quite a web making you truly unsure who the “bad” guy or girl might be. It’s a story of classmates, alumna, even town folk. Many of which loved the most popular guy in school back then or many who wanted to do away with him. Maybe we’re all familiar with that thought too (tee hee).
This is Book 6 in a series titled “Leah Nash Mysteries”. There is no question it can be read as a stand-alone, but I think all are probably equally worth the time to read. In fact, all have great reviews.
I thoroughly enjoyed reading “Dangerous Ground!” It was well-written and very clever. There were a lot of likable characters, and some that you love to hate. I thought Leah and her mom were very witty with their sarcastic comments, and I loved their relationship. The twists and turns in the story kept me constantly on my toes, and turning the pages far into the night, trying to figure out along with Leah who the murderer was (which I never did, by the way). And what a surprise when it was revealed! I received an advanced copy of this book from the author (many thanks), I recommend it highly, and I will certainly be reading more of her books in the future.
I just can not get enough of Leah Nash! I could hardly contain myself until this book came out. I devoured this story in just 2 days…only because work got in the way or else it would have been one. Being from a small town myself, I totally understood how the people are. This story started out with a high school reunion and Ryan Malloy, a small-town boy who is now a star. But Leah and other people really don’t remember him. Then he is murdered. What is going on here? A lovely twisted tale with some great characters that will have you hooked into Susan Hunter’s books!!! I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.
I really enjoyed the characters in this book, and the plot had enough twists that it kept me guessing until the end. I would recommend it to anyone.
Dangerous Ground is the sixth book in the Leah Nash Mysteries and one that I had been anticipating for a while now. I was excited to read this book and it was great reuniting with the characters from the previous books. Leah is one of my favorite characters and I like seeing her accept her flaws while trying to grow as a person. All of the characters in this book are very realistic, enjoyable, and multidimensional. I always love reading about Leah and her relationships with everyone involved in her life.
The mystery is this book kept me hooked and wanting to find out more. There were plenty of twists in this book to keep it interesting and I was not sure who the murderer was because there were several plausible suspects. Even looking back now at who the killer was still surprises me since it was not anyone I thought it would be. I love the mysteries that Leah faces in every book because they are rarely predictable and always keep me intrigued. I received this book as an advance review copy of this book at no cost.
