Tucker Snow #1
Small town life should be calm, serene, and easy…right? Not so much for Tucker and his daughter Chloe when they moved to Ganther Bluff and found themselves across the road from drug dealers that didn’t play nice. Great introduction to a new series!
What I liked:
* Tucker: widow, father to a teenage daughter, grieving, lost his wife and younger daughter to meth addled driver, trying to health while keeping his daughter safe
* Chloe: sixteen, not happy to have moved to the country, misses her mother and sister, grieving, goodhearted, kind, caring, strong – has a good future
* Harley: Tucker’s younger brother and partner for years undercover, married, has to young sons, a bit higher strung than Tucker, loves his family and brother, in synch with Tucker when working
* Tammy: Harley’s wife and aunt to Chloe, there for her family, strong and resilient
* The plot, pacing, setting, and writing
* The way Tucker and Harley worked together
* That I knew who the bad guys were and was rooting for them to be dealt with
* The way family and community played a part – both good and bad families
* That there is another book to look forward to
What I didn’t like:
* Who and what I was meant not to like
* Knowing that there are evil people like the ones in this book and that they harm so many by doing what they do
Did I enjoy this book? Yes
Would I read more in this series? Yes
Thank you to NetGalley and Poisoned Pen Press for the ARC – This is my honest review.
