Don't leave this book in the shadows

I loved this latest instalment in the Mac Faraday series. The book starts with a surprise opening and you are left wondering did I just hear that right? Then it goes back in time to explain what lead up to the event that has you so stunned. It may sound confusing but boy does it keep you hooked wondering what happened or is going to. Mac, Gnarly and the gang are all there but this book focuses more on the new Deputy Chief Dusty and an old case. I do have to say that Gnarly (Mac's loveable dog) does take a step back, he is still full of his usual mischief but a talking parrot steals the spot light and provides some of the best laughs. The book also takes on a super natural feel to it but somehow it works and is just as entertaining as previous books. The mystery is good and like the previous books it never turns out quite like you think it is going to do. I really like this author and am so glad I discovered her because it doesn't matter which series you are reading or listening to just know it is going to be good and you are going to be entertained with a good mystery and a few laughs along the way. Can't wait for the next book.

I liked the narrator. He is entertaining and uses different ways to voice his characters.
