Resumen del Editor

Film actress Jamie Riedel was barely a teenager when, while on a camping trip, she witnessed the brutal murder of her father. Fourteen years later, Jamie returns to Jackson Ridge to settle up the estate of her estranged mother. Soon after her arrival, a note appears on her door: "I saw you in the woods today." Now Jamie is questioning if the right man was sent to prison for her father's murder.

Helping her to answer that question is childhood friend, Deputy Chief Gage Hansen. He's more than willing to find the truth that will finally bring Jamie peace in her life, but at what cost? A nasty divorce from his cheating wife has made Gage gun-shy when it comes to relationships, especially with beautiful women who use their feminine wiles to get what they want in life. His defenses start to crumble once he learns that most of the stories he's read about the starlet are lies, and that Jamie is basically the same girl he had a secret crush on when they were best friends. They live in two separate worlds, though, and Gage knows he could never fit into her celebrity lifestyle. When it becomes apparent that someone in Jackson Ridge will go to any lengths to get rid of Jamie, the pair risks everything to solve the 14-year mystery that's haunted the town.

Cold Case Solved

I enjoyed this story as a mystery, and I especially liked Jamie, the Oscar-winning actress who misses her small town roots. For fourteen years she has been haunted by the past. Now she's determined to recover her suppressed memories of her father's murder. In the process, she learns many things she needs to know in order to move forward in her life and, of course, helps Gage solve the case.

Murder at Black Lake
: Anne Patrick


This is the third title by this author I've listened to. I thoroughly enjoy a good clean book that provides mystery, suspense, and romance that doesn't have everyone falling in bed by chapter two.The female protagonist returns to settle tthe estate of her mother that she hasn't seen in years. She is also looking for answers about her fathers murder 14 years earlier. She is reunited with childhood friends, one who happens to be a police Deputy Chief.

I enjoyed this very much and listened to it more than once. I look forward to more from this author.


The narration was well done.The characters were well portrayed by Leonor A. Woodworth.

Very good!

I really have been enjoying several of Anne Patrick's books. This one did not let me down. I love the chemistry between Jamie and Gage without having to have any sexual content. The murder, the attacks, the stalking...all well written and kept me wondering right up to the end.
I listened to the audiobook version of this book and, once again, Leonor Woodworth did an exceptional job. She has such a smooth way of speaking that I tend to forget that she is reading the story to me, but rather, she is telling the tale.

A Very Nice, Clean Mystery!

I really enjoyed the story and the characters of this Christian-based novel. It was a light read with likable characters. The narrator did an excellent job in bringing this story to life. If you enjoy a light mystery with clean language and behavior, this is a real charmer!

Religious undertones

The story was overall fun and easy to listen to on my road trip. However, it was very g-rated and had religious undertones that I would have liked to know of before selecting it.

well worth one credit

very good

I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher. This book was very very good. The plot was great and easy to follow. I was hooked on the main characters and their journey right away. The murder mystery was very intelligently written. The narrator did an awesome job. She was very easy to listen to and had a soothing voice. She did a good job distinguishing between characters. My only issue ( and this is just my personal preference) is that there was kind of a lot of christianity and faith based portions if the story. I would prefer to leave that out of what I read.
