Review: Deadly Target

Deadly Target Deadly Target by Elizabeth Goddard
My rating: 💛💛💛💛

Wow, from the start this book had danger and action and so much going on. I love cold case stories, so it was definitely very intriguing to follow the clues to gather the evidence along with Nathan and Erin.

She fought the whimpers that tried to escape. These were truly her last moments on this earth.

There was a lot if twists and turns - some I saw coming, some surprised me and one big twist which totally took me by surprise and had me think- that came out of nowhere!

There was a great balance between solving the mystery, escaping danger and sorting out emotional baggage from the past.

This is a newly discovered author for me, but definitely one I added to my must read list.

Even though this is part of a series, it can be read as a standalone.

About the book:


Criminal psychologist Erin Larson's dreams of a successful career come to a screeching halt when she nearly loses her own life in a boating accident on Puget Sound and then learns that her mother tried to commit suicide. She leaves her job as a criminal psychologist to care for her mother in Montana. At least she is able to produce her podcast, which focuses on solving missing persons cold cases.

Nathan Campbell's father was investigating such a case when he was shot, and now Nathan needs to enlist Erin's help to solve the case. She's good at what she does. The only problem? She's his ex.

As the two dig deeper, it becomes clear that they, too, are being targeted--and that the answers to their questions are buried deep within the past Erin struggles to explain and longs to forget.

The race is on for the truth in this gripping and complex tale of suspense, intrigue, and murder from USA Today bestselling author Elizabeth Goddard.
