Fatal Impulse (A Green Dory Inn Mystery, #5)

By Janet Sketchley

Description:

If the runaway mom didn’t sneak back into town, who’s the snow-covered corpse wearing her coat?

Landon Smith doesn’t dare investigate. Juggling intense university courses, a fledgling romance, and an empty bed and breakfast, the twenty-four-year-old trauma survivor is fighting for her dreams. Yet her heart breaks for the hurting teen who’s convinced his mother is the body in the woods.

For his sake, she’ll dig into the secretive woman’s abrupt flight. But when the missing persons case ties into the murder, Landon fears she’s placed herself on the villain’s hit list.

With her mistakes mounting and her personal life imploding, can Landon uncover the truth—and maybe open the door to a family reunion—before she stands face to face with a killer?

Cozy mystery meets Christian women’s fiction in Fatal Impulse, the twisty fifth book in the Green Dory Inn mystery series. If you like female amateur sleuths who don’t quit, small-town characters who feel like friends, and mischievous cats, then you’ll love Janet Sketchley’s heartfelt whodunit.

Book Takeaway:

The standard mystery takeaway: villains get caught, and some level of justice is done. I hope readers will remember the characters fondly, and with this book I hope they'll think more about how God sees them and grow in relationship with Him.

Why the author wrote this book:

My writing philosophy is, "Why leave God out of our fiction when He's part of our lives?" In my Green Dory Inn series, I want to give readers a clean and faith-filled mystery that engage their hearts.
