Description

Death is one click away when a string of murders rocks a small Colorado town in the first mesmerizing novel in M. E. Browning's A Jo Wyatt Mystery series.

Echo Valley, Colorado, is a place where the natural beauty of a stunning river valley meets a budding hipster urbanity. But when an internet stalker is revealed to be a cold-blooded killer in real life the peaceful community is rocked to its core.

It should have been an open-and-shut case: the suicide of Tye Horton, the designer of a cutting-edge video game. But Detective Jo Wyatt is immediately suspicious of Quinn Kirkwood, who reported the death. When Quinn reveals an internet stalker is terrorizing her, Jo is skeptical. Doubts aside, she delves into the claim and uncovers a link that ties Quinn to a small group of beta-testers who had worked with Horton. When a second member of the group dies in a car accident, Jo's investigation leads her to the father of a young man who had killed himself a year earlier. But there's more to this case than a suicide, and as Jo unearths the layers, a more sinister pattern begins to emerge--one driven by desperation, shame, and a single-minded drive for revenge.

As Jo closes in, she edges ever closer to the shattering truth--and a deadly showdown that will put her to the ultimate test.

You'll never see the ending coming until it's too late - my favorite kind of mystery. This new book is set a college town in the Rocky Mountains where the affluent and the less so are more intertwined than you'd expect. Dislike or distrust is palpable but mostly hidden by social rules. Without giving much away, you'll find the story is told from the viewpoint of the main character - a female police officer. Other characters include some young adult gamers, a testy, anti-social college student plus a host of interesting supporting characters (other college students, professors with big egos, other police officers with inter-personal issues) and an unexplained death.

I loved this new main character and will be looking for other books by this author.
