I fell into private investigating by accident, after a monster killed my boy Henry. Three days later, I found my vengeance, then I turned my new-found skills toward helping other folks solve their own supernatural problems. Now, my first and only best friend was knocking at my door with a mystery on his hands, a mystery the police couldn’t solve. Seems something was tearing up the docks out in … the docks out in Greenwood Cove, disturbing the muckity mucks something fierce.
I was the only one willing to look beyond the normal and figure out what was really going on in the water, and let me tell you: I ain’t never backed down when a monster come a-calling.

Enjoyable! The narrator used such a strong accent, it was a little difficult to get into at first. However, it was perfect for the book, and I was soon lost in the story. The characters were very well developed and the story was entertaining. I loved the paranormal elements. There was a twist at the end that I didn’t see coming. Can’t wait to read the next!
I was given a free audiobook in exchange for an honest review. This in no way affected my review.
This is a fantastic mystery. Sunshine investigates different cases in a small town. I love her character and her personality. This is a fantastic listen that grabs you right from the beginning, I love the mystery and the intriguing way the story goes. Its like putting a puzzle together. This is a real page turner that the Author and Narrator have done a fantastic job on it. I highly recommend. This Audiobook.

Sunshine Walkingstick is 1/2 Cherokee and comes from a line of Criminals. She does various work tracking down lost items, killing monsters, and such. She is a strong woman who can usually take care of herself. This book introduces the reader to this character and her friends and what little family she has left. I enjoyed this story well enough to have gotten books 2 & 3 on Audible to continue listening to her story.
This was an interesting story, but not as paranormal as the description says. This is way backwoods Appalachia in the telling of the narrator. She does a decent accent and gave a different tone for the other characters. This is a slow burn story with romance and mystery and a minor god thrown in. I will be looking for the next story to see how it goes. There are sad elements to the entire story because of the loss of her child, the story will keep you interested.
I received a free copy of this audio book for a voluntary review.
I was shocked at the accent that the narrator but I have to say I loved it. Her southern drawl is so good you get lost in it. Her drastic change in voices leave no doubt as to who the character is that is speaking even with out hearing a name. Seriously phenomenal job!
Now to the story. There’s always something mystical and other worldly when the swamp and Deep South are involved. This book is a paranormal but I feel really is just closer to the livings abs supernatural type vibe you find in the bayou. It’s well written and intriguing to say the least. There are some slow spots in it and I kind of cringe at the basic complete worthlessness the main character feels for herself. I know this is not a new thing but I felt like it was an extreme this book didn’t need. I always enjoy a book with a paranormal and mystery spin on it and will happily continue this story. It’s has humor, a bit of spice and some of her terms will make you giggle. There’s live, mystery and some dark going on which makes it a well rounded story.
