Thank you @simon.audio and @librofm for this complementary audiobook. I’m still trying to get caught up on reviews. So, who’s in the mood for: 

🔹a police procedural 

🔹 a strong female main character 

🔹 revenge 

🔹dead bodies turning up

🔹a rural setting 

🔹a snowstorm on the way

🔹a mysterious and growing cult

Raise your hand if I had you at cult. 🙋‍♀️

Sheriff Heidi Kick is back in the fourth book in John Galligan’s Bad Axe County series. No worries, this can easily be read as a standalone. Heidi has a lot going on in her personal life and with her job. A growing religious sect has moved into the county. Rumors are running rampant and the community is getting riled up at the presence of the newcomers. While Heidi tries to find a way to diffuse the hostilities, she’s also in the middle of a murder investigation. And an old boyfriend is out on parole and looking to exact revenge on Heidi for her role in sending him away years ago. All this is not only threatening her job, but also her life and her family’s safety.

I really like Heidi’s no nonsense character. She’s often torn between family and job obligations. This fast paced story was a quick listen and Samantha Desz’s narration is top notch. This is a good choice for readers looking a female-centric police thriller with lots of action and family drama. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

QOTD: We’re having pizza for dinner tonight. What’s your favorite topping? 

I’m usually happy with just cheese but every so often we’ll get onions or sausage on it.
