Silent Gavel (A Crawford Mystery Book 1) by Merissa Racine- Review by Lauren West

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

Merissa Racine did an amazing job with this book!! Every chapter I read I was trying to fit pieces together to solve this small town mystery. I did not want to put this book down once I started, and I did not want to be wrong about who I believed to be the murderer after I finished it. Lol
This story was very vivid and easily imagined, and the way she told the story it felt like you could be there.
It starts of with Lauren returning home to face her past and see if she can find her way successfully in this new chapter of her life. Good friends, her own home, and decent job show her promising start. Then one day she goes to pick up the judge she works with and walks right into a murder scene. She is questioned multiple times believed to be the prime suspect, and when information comes in casting a shadow on her ex-husband as well things get even stranger. As the story unfolds there is much more to this mystery and the small town than meets the eye. I promise you wont put this book down until the end!
