"Shadows at Dusk", by Elizabeth Goddard




Missing in Alaska book #2

Detective Trevor West’s sister went missing in Alaska a year ago and he is desperate to finding her. She left a few photographs as clue to her whereabouts and needs the help of an experience pilot to track her down. The best resource is Carrie James who knows the area like the palm of her hand. ....and the adventure begins.

I received this Arc from the publisher Revell via Netgalley for my thoughts and I am glad to share them with you. Ms. Goddard is one of the authors I like to follow. .She writes with a steady hand and knows how to spin an interesting tale filled with suspense and thrills. Along the way a bit of love attraction never hurts and she does that with aplomb and taste. The dynamic between the main characters is cute and well-done. I really like how Carrie and Trevor interact. The suspense doesn’t stay to one case, Carrie has her own agenda, she needs to find who may have killed her closest friend and bring the killer to justice. As the two close in on the answers...they face dangers and connections they could not have imagined. What a wild ride we are into flying the sky of Alaska while moments later we are deep into caves with crumbling walls and miners (bad guys) plotting to blow up the shafts and the whole mining camp. The action is so exciting...I couldn’t help but flip the pages furiously (Ok, a bit heavy). Ms. Goddard vivid and colourful words bring her stories to life and make them believable.

This enjoyable story is a blend of suspense, faith, adventure, danger and romance.
