A retired detective now lives back home in the town she grew up in. At a school carnival, things go horribly wrong when a little girl suddenly goes missing. Ryleigh will have to put aside all her misgivings about being a cop and step in to help the town deputy to find the missing child

I quite enjoyed this book. It looks to possibly be part of a series? Not 100% sure but I will look into it. The plot was fast paced and had me going along for the ride. I did not see the ending coming.
The only thing that tooo me aback a bit was the mountain language or way of talking but that’s on me for not having much exposure to it. Other than that I enjoyed the characters. Ryleigh is a strong character and o would be interested to read more about her life and adventures
I give this book a 4/5
Very good and I look forward to checking out other work by this author

Rileigh and Mitch are back for another case. A little girl vanishes from a carnival at the school. They race to find the girl but then another child disappears. When the second disappears, Mitch calls in the FBI. Rileigh is learning about another child going missing fifty or sixty years ago and it might just have something to do with the missing children now. Mitch offers Rileigh a job as a deputy while looking for the kids.
I know this is very short but I can’t think of anything else to say without giving anything away. Mitch and Rileigh are perfect for each but I’m not sure if they will get together. Secrets. Fast paced. A real nail biter. Was shocked and then the ending. Can’t wait to see what happens next.

I swear, I absolutely love this series. Watching the relationship form between Rileigh and Mitch has been thoroughly entertaining. The author has been really adept at keeping the main story the focus while still revisiting the B stories sprinkled in there. There’s just enough to keep the reader hungry for more. and this time, finally! One of the things I’ve been waiting for in Rileigh’s story has happened! Well, a few things happened. But one of my top three hopes happened, and it looks like the next book may show another! I’ll be eagerly awaiting that next one! I can’t get enough of this series!

Huge thanks to Sterling & Stone and NetGalley for sending me this ARC for review! All of my reviews are given honestly!

Rileigh Bishop has returned home and is a part time private detective. Until children start disappearing from the small town. She is sworn in as a deputy, and assists Sheriff Mitch and the FBI to find the children.
There are no clues, until she hears about children going missing in the 1950's.
Could the cases be connected?

This is a very suspenseful and gripping book! And also very emotional.
History repeats itself, and in this case, Generational Trauma is obvious.

I have read one other book in this Bishop Smoky Mountain series, but would really love to read the whole series. And I hope Rileigh remains in the police department.

I recommend this book. 4/5 stars from me.

Thanks to Netgalley and Sterling & Stone for the opportunity to read this book.

This is the first book I’ve read by Lauren Street, and I really enjoyed it!
It kept me guessing - I think it could have been a little shorter, some chapters could have come out without altering the story.
I will definitely be reading more of her books, probably starting with #1 in this series!!!

Great book! I thoroughly enjoyed reading this one! This book had a bit of everything! It had great suspense, intrigue, action packed, murder, mystery, child abduction, A fantastic who done it and some crazy twists and turns! The storyline was very interesting and kept me glued to my Kindle! I highly recommend reading this book as it was well worth reading! Thank you Netgalley and the publisher for sharing this book with me!

Amazing plot line, may be bone chilling for some. I was reading it and CHILLS. A page turner and I think the author did a great job.
