On a mountaintop resort community in Wintergreen,
Virginia, is the retirement location of Bill O’Shea
from Columbia, South Carolina. He has moved
there after he retirement from the police force.
The acting chief of local police plus a real estate
broker, Alex Sharp is substituting while their deputy
chief is out on maternity leave plus the department
investigator is away.
A local resident is killed in a hit and run accident so
the acting chief is requesting Bill to help with the
investigation. Was this an accident or was the dead
man deliberately run down?
As reluctant as Bill is to dive into the acting chief’s
request, the investigation skills he developed
throughout the years plus no suspects peaks his
curiosity into overdrive. He becomes involved in
helping solve this well plotted situation.
The author has a real flair for descriptive scenes.
The reader will feel as if they are right there in
the mountains, valleys and hiking trails.
I enjoyed meeting the colorful, relatable, well
crafted characters.
I found this book intriguing, suspenseful, full of
twists and turns.
I found the storyline riveting from the first word
until the last word.
I volunteered to read the Mountain View Murder.
This is book # 1 in the Wintergreen Mystery series.
Thanks to the author for the opportunity.
My opinion is voluntary and my own.
Looking forward to reading the next book in the series.
