Helme, Colleen, Deep in Death. 8. 46 hrs. (unbar.) Colleen
Helme, 2015. Audible Download.
After getting shot in her last adventure, Shelby Nichols
wants to stay out of trouble, at least for a while. Things, however, never go
as planned. Taking on a new case, Shelby is looking in to the disappearance of
her client’s mother, Darcy Shaw. In order to figure out what happened to her,
Shelby looks into the mother’s old acquaintances. Digging up old relationships,
however, uncovers a serial killer. Fitting the killer’s perfect victim, he
plans to make Shelby his next target. When
Joey “the Knife” Manetto, aka Uncle Joey, and her friend, Ramos are caught in a
yacht explosion, Shelby may find herself on her own with this case. Determined to figure out what happened to
Joey and Ramos, and to get away from the killer, Shelby heads to their last
known location, Seattle. Can Shelby solve both cases and come out alive?
Narrator, Wendy Tremont King is a great complement to
Colleen Helme’s book. Her unique voices bring to life Colleen’s well developed
character and Shelby’s world. The character dynamics are spot on and make for
an enjoyable, humorous read. The plot is fast-paced, complex, engaging, and keeps the
reader guessing what’s going to happen next. The author expertly switches between
internal and external dialogue and King smoothly handles them without missing a
beat. Readers who have read the other books in the Shelby Nichols adventures
won’t be disappointed. Newcomers to the Shelby scene will be able to easily
pick up on the story line, but will be eager to listen to the others.
Recommended for anyone who enjoys a fun, paranormal mystery with a bit of
romance intermixed.
