About the book
There are even more hidden secrets waiting to be uncovered in the mountains of Montana...and in the past.
Private investigator Samantha Price is enjoying a leisurely summer at Honor’s Edge Investigations with Nate Bennet, who has just been licensed to work alongside her. Together, they form a strong, yet somewhat hesitant team. When a familiar client approaches them for help, the case initially appears straightforward, but as expected, complications arise. Aly Cartwright, who works on the Bennet ranch and is engaged to Nate’s brother, becomes entangled in the investigation. What starts off as a simple vandalism case soon unravels to reveal connections to a recent murder and a decades-old mystery.
Nate, who left home at a young age, is uncertain if he is ready to settle down or reconcile with his brothers. Samantha has also found herself at odds with the Bennetts. However, with Aly's safety at risk due to escalating threats and vandalism, can Samantha and Nate find a way to work with the Bennetts to solve the mysteries and prevent a tragic outcome?
For those who enjoy the works of C.J. Box, William Kent Krueger, and Lisa Regan, Dark Mountain Ambush offers a gripping mountain mystery filled with family secrets, long-buried crimes, and heart-pounding suspense.
