In Burning Lake, N.Y., a small town filled with witch craft, wicca, paganism, even satanic rituals, Willow Lockhart was found brutally murdered at an old farm. Leaving behind her parents and sisters, Grace and Natalie, with heartbreak and questions.
Natalie Lockhart grew up knowing she wanted to follow in her father's footsteps and work for BLPD. Now she's a rookie detective and remembering all of her dad's advice, she's determined to solve the cold cases of The Missing Nine. After finding some new clues, she hopes to get answers before the Missing Nine becomes the Missing Ten. Then on the night of Willow's 20th deathiversary, Natalie finds Daisy Buckner, Grace's best friend and wife of Natalie's coworker, murdered on the Buckner's kitchen floor. Who would kill this beloved school teacher? After a couple leads, Detective Natalie Lockhart starts to think this could be a lot darker than your typical murder.
I love a book that keeps me hooked. Even with lots of detail like this one, I never got bored. A book about detective work needs that detail and this one had it. I felt like I was right there with Natalie looking for the clues for the Missing Nine, finding Daisy murdered on her kitchen floor. And realizing the people she knew for so long, may not be who she thought they were.
There were several times I said, "I know who killed Daisy Buckner." Sure it may have switched from time to time, but I really thought I knew. Boy, was I wrong! The suspense leading up to the end was perfect. Alice Blanchard had me on the edge of my seat up to the final chapter. I loved this book!
