Not my favorite in the series, but a fast moving thriller set in a small town that is totally messed up (not original!) It moves quickly, it is good to see more character development and I look forward to the next one in the series. This one really felt like a bridge book to the next big thing.

Heading to the mountains for a vacation, Lucy Kincaid and Seth Rogan stop at the small town of Spruce Lake as a favor to Seth's brother. Tim and Adam Hendrickson are battling vandals while trying to open a new resort. When someone sets fire to the kitchen, Sean takes off after the arsonist but falls into an abandoned mine shaft during the pursuit. Lucy tracks down Sean. While helping her injured boyfriend get out of the mine, she finds something else down there...a dead body. But when she leads skeptical law enforcement into the mine, the body has disappeared.

This is the third book in the Lucy Kincaid series. Lucy is an aspiring FBI agent who uses her knowledge to investigate the vandalism and discover what happened to the body she saw. While investigating Sean and Lucy discover that Spruce Lake has many secrets.

The mystery in this book was full of twists and turns. There were so many characters, I needed to make a list to keep track of them. There was a lot going on in this town that the residents were either covering up or were too scared to go to the cops. While I enjoyed the mystery, I didn't like the portions of the book about Lucy and her problems. Once again, she is upset about something in her personal life. This has happened in each of the first three books. I hope it isn't a trend. My rating: 4 Stars.

FBI agent Lucy Kincaid and her boyfriend private investigator Seth Rogan go on a romantic Adirondacks vacation. They enjoy wake up sex when they smell smoke. The nearby Spruce Lake Inn is on fire with an apparent arsonist fleeing the scene. Sean borrows an ATV from the resort owner and pursues the firebug. He falls inside an abandoned mine shaft.

Kincaid extracts Rogan from the mine, but she also finds the corpse of a young woman inside the shaft. Sheriff's deputy Weddle ridicules Kincaid as the body vanished. As Rogan heals from his dislocated shoulder and minor scrapes and bruises, he and Kincaid investigate a murder that the townsfolk ignore. Someone tries to kill the intruders while FBI agent Noah Armstrong arrives to assist his friends.

The third Lucy Kincaid FBI suspense (see Love Me To Death and Kiss Me, Kill Me) is an exhilarating tale from the moment the idyllic week ends with the arson. The story line is fast-paced throughout as reader will enjoy this taut tale while also wondering whether Kincaid can tell Rogan she loves him.

Bonus novella: Love Is Murder. Lucy Kincaid visits her brother Patrick, a former cop, in the Sierra Nevada's. Also at the Delarosa Mountain Retreat are three newlywed couples. A snowstorm isolates the lodge from the outside as one of the brides Vanessa took too many pills and is found dead. Patrick suspects murder, but he becomes ill, so Lucy investigates the homicide. This is an entertaining locked lodge mystery occurring before the heroine became a Fed but Kincaid professionally works the case like a seasoned veteran.
