There was a lot happening all at once, to the point that it began to feel borderline ridiculous, and not particularly believable that all of these incidents were actually connected. However, there were points in this story where things just felt too frantic.

Revell books sometimes have problems finding a balance with their Christian message, but it felt organic here to include some scriptural references and mentions of prayer, nothing too heavy-handed but enough to help the reader see that faith is an important part of some of the characters’ lives. There were a lot of things I liked about this book, including Autumn herself and many of the secondary characters. Autumn finds herself leaning on a newcomer and outsider named Grier, but at the same time she can’t help wondering if he is the source of the trouble. Usually a quiet town, Shadow Gap has suddenly become rife with strange attacks and murders. Autumn loves her town and her job, but right now some members of the town council want to see her removed and the nephew of one of the council members installed as chief instead. The Aroma of Books //Rants//Raves//Reviews//Īutumn is the police chief in a small Alaskan town, just like her father was before a bad accident left him permanently injured and a borderline alcoholic.
