Deadly Deceit
Ratings1
Average rating4
Independent and tenacious journalist Vivian DeMarco is back in Walton, Georgia, for one reason--to do her job and get out. When her boss suddenly dies under suspicious circumstances, Vivian's only hope for finding the truth--and the next big story--is small-town law enforcement's lanky poster boy, Deputy Ryan Frost. But the deeper they dig, the more twisted the truth becomes, and Vivian finds herself fighting for not only answers but also her life. False leads, incriminating emails, and someone called The Watcher force Vivian to confront the secret of her past and decide: How much is she willing to risk for the sake of a headline? Author Natalie Walters welcomes you back to Walton, Georgia, where everyone knows your name--but no one knows your secret.

Plenty of fast-paced action in this one! I love this small town and how it deals with kicking out crime. I really loved Living Lies and knew I needed a copy of this one, because I really enjoyed the writing in the first.
This crime kept me glued to the pages as the Watcher's misdeeds seemed to have tumor-tentacles in almost everything. I really enjoyed Ryan and Vivian as characters and liked the way they worked together on the case as a policeman and a reporter.
There wasn't as much Christian content as the previous book, which didn't necessarily bother me but I'd have preferred to be left with a stronger idea of what Vivian's faith means to her.
I really loved Pecca as a side character and can't wait to read her story in a few months. The teaser in the back with her first chapter was almost cruel because it made me want the book so badly!
I'd say 18+ because of the stalker aspect of the crime and the drugs/sex involved in the crime (pretty low key overall)
Thanks to the publisher for a free reading copy. A favorable review was not required.
