Silent Gavel (A Crawford Mystery Book 1) by Merissa Racine – Review by Heather Bass

Silent Gavel by Merissa Racine
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the first book I have read from this author and wow she blew my mind. I have not read a mystery story in a long time and I’m so happy I read this one. This is the first book in the Crawford Mystery series and it was a perfect book to start an addictive series. I started to read this book and I could not put it down. It only took me a little over a day to devour this story.

Lauren Besoner is finally ready to go home and start a new life. Her marriage fell apart and now she wants to start off as a new woman. Lauren gets a job that she is so excited for. She is the new stenographer in her hometown in Wyoming. Lauren doesn’t want any more drama in her life so she concentrates on her job. One morning she goes to pick up a judge that she is starting to like only to find her murdered in the house. Lauren doesn’t know what to do because she has answered all the questions but they keep on blaming her for a murder she did not do. She starts her own investigation but is she going to find the person before they find her?
