Book Spotlight Giveaway! Walk Into Silence by Susan McBride #WalkIntoSilence

I have sooooo many books! The Book Spotlight Giveaway feature that I post every Saturday is a way for me to clear my shelves and to share some of the many books I have. This feature is a way for my to cull my collection and to give someone else the opportunity to enjoy these treasures.

I read and reviewed this book when it came out. It was a great first book to a new series. I really need to get a hold of book 2. You can read my thoughts here.

Good luck and be sure to stop back next week!

Walk Into Silence

Walk Into Silence by Susan McBride 
(Detective Jo Larsen #1)
ARC, 370 pages
Published December 1st 2016 by Thomas & Mercer

A woman vanishes from a Texas town. Did she simply run off, or is something darker at play?

When Patrick Dielman shows up at Detective Jo Larsen’s desk insisting that his wife, Jenny, is missing, Jo wonders if it’s a case of a bored housewife running away.

But as she digs deeper into Jenny’s life, Jo learns that Dielman keeps a stranglehold on the family finances, down to the last nickel, and that Jenny’s first marriage dissolved following the death of her young son. By all accounts—including her doctor’s—she never recovered from the loss. Between a controlling husband, a tragic past, and a callous ex-husband, Jo can’t be sure if she should suspect foul play or accept that the woman may have wanted to disappear.

For Jo, whose own demons are shadowing her every step, finding Jenny becomes more than the typical protect-and-serve.
