A dead body, a flood, and a boy’s rescue. Can Annalisa Carabelle keep the boy safe while racing to discover a killer before it's too late?
All Annalisa Carabelle wants is a successful summer season for the bed-and-breakfast she co-owns. She never expected the flood, the boy who needed rescuing, or the man who came from nowhere to help. The dead body? Well, the wound to the head proved it had nothing to do with do with the deluge.
Richard Jordan’s plans for the summer include as much scrambling up waterfalls as possible. He needs the adrenaline rush because life has proven routine, even pointless. But both the woman and the boy called him a hero, and maybe the dead body is a wake-up call. Life might be worth living if he and this intriguing woman can find the killer and make sure he doesn’t kill again.
But they’ve got too many suspects, and even the police are baffled. With the family protecting the killer, he might just get away for good, unless they force his hand—and stay alive while they are doing it.

My thoughts: When they save a young boy from nearly drowning, Richard and Annalisa are thrown together and team up to uncover the elements that don't add up. I loved the strong element of faith in this story! I also enjoyed getting to know the characters, as they tried to work through the mystery, as well as their different views on faith and God. I thought that the author did a great job with the pacing and suspense. I look forward to reading more of Linda K. Rodante's mysteries!
I received this book from Just Read. This is my honest review.
