Sarah Armstrong Mysteries, Book 5

By: Kathryn Casey

Narrated by: Carmen Jewel Jones

A plumber cuts into a wall at an old house searching for the source of a leak. Instead, he uncovers a gruesome sight—a woman’s mummified body tied onto a chair. How long has she been there? Months? Years? Decades? Who is she? Will Texas Ranger Sarah Armstrong be able to interpret the strange symbols surrounding the body to find the woman’s killer? Is this baffling case tied to one out of Sarah’s past, unfinished business that still haunts her nightmares?

Meanwhile, Sarah’s life is in turmoil. On her way home from dinner with a friend, a dispatch prompts Sarah to take a detour. Hoping to help two officers serve a warrant, she arrives at a chaotic scene. Sarah advises them to stand down and wait for help, but a trigger-happy cop shoots, and it all goes bad. An innocent man is killed, leading to a courtroom confrontation that puts Sarah’s actions under a microscope and her face in the headlines, endangering her family and her life.

The two cases intertwine and take Sarah on a terrifying journey, leading her to reevaluate her life, her choices, and her future.

Amazing Narrator

This was a compelling story and the narrator did an excellent job of holding my attention.

Strong characters

I have enjoyed the entire Sara Armstrong series and was hoping to read Sara's ongoing adventures with the Texas Rangers. I was really disappointed and angry with the ending that she was leaving the Rangers. I hope the author has her returning in a following book.
