This was a great suspense with a touch of romance. The author added several different point-of-views from the characters, which added to the mystery of who-done-it. -- 5*Really enjoyed this book. A fast-paced legal thriller that keeps the reader guessing from beginning to end, this book is more a whodunit than the touch of comedy found in many of McLinns books. -- 5*McLinn's writing is so atmospheric, so descriptive of people and locale that I could swear I heard the waterfall, leaf-deadened footfalls. --5* A well-paced murder/mystery with a slow-burn romance. --5*Engaging from the beginning [with] many plot twists and plenty of action. --5*NOTE FROM PATRICIA McLINN TO CAUGHT DEAD IN WYOMING READERS: The Innocence Trilogy does not have as much humor as the Caught Dead mysteries, though there is some. These books are a bit grittier and darker ... though not in the deep end of grit and dark.
