Shadows of Doubt (A Crawford Mystery) by Merissa Racine

4 out of 5 Stars

Merissa Racine brings the suspense each time. I was sure I knew who the killer was. Then, wham! Twist!!! I didn’t see it coming. I was blindsided. But, I saw all the clues that had been there from the beginning. The ending is not what I expected. I hope that there are more mysteries coming!

Lauren Besoner has been freelance court reporting since her ex-husband, Tony, became the judge. She knew that she could not work for him. Lauren agrees to cover for his court reporter while she is on maternity leave. This puts Lauren smack dab in the middle of the biggest thing the little town has ever seen, a murder trial. Lauren doesn’t believe that the accused is guilty. She winds up discovering the real murderer and so much more. Will Lauren ever be the same?

I didn’t understand the reason for all the testimony. I have to admit that it dragged on for me a bit. I realized that all of it was important. If not for the details provided by the individual witnesses, some of the reasons when the real killer is revealed wouldn’t make sense. I don’t think we have seen the last of Ray. Impatiently waiting for the next one!
