Shadows of Doubt (A Crawford Mystery) by Merissa Racine – Review by Alexandria Richard
Shadows of Doubt: A Crawford Mystery by Merissa Racine
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Second installment of the series, great spin on murder mystery novel.
Loved this book. As someone who knows a bit of the legal process I enjoyed seeing it play out on the page and how Lauren’s character contributed to finding out the truth. I could see how that legal process could be seen as slower reading to the casual reader though. I do think there were confidentiality issues that arose but it certainly made for some good drama in the story.
I enjoyed getting to know more about Lauren’s family history and back story. We get to meet her dad and we get to see more of Aunt Kate and Uncle Jake. We don’t get to see as much of Sam in this installment but his appearances are never dull. I enjoyed Eli, the defense attorney, and the side conversations Lauren and he share.
This book follows in the firsts footsteps with me not having guessed the end result but thoroughly enjoying the conclusion.
Hope there’s a book 3 in the works; I look forward to reading it if so.
