Film Student Lyra Prescott is close to finishing her classes. She just needs to submit a short documentary for her degree. Her subject is a once beautiful city park that is now an illegal dumping ground for garbage. Lyra sets up a hidden camera to capture people illegally dumping at the site. That's when things start getting weird. There is a series of incidents that threaten Lyra's life. Lyra's roommate contacts her brother who sends an FBI Agent to protect Lyra. Agent Sam Kincaid is just here as a favor for a friend. He knows someone wants Lyra dead, but not why. Sam and Lyra must stay one step ahead of a killer.

This is the eighth book in Julie Garwood's Buchanan-Renard series. I liked the characters, especially Lyra and Sam. I found the inept hitman to be humorous. Lyra's parents were unbelievable and should have had more page time. I figure out early in the story the identity of the person who wanted Lyra dead.

Unfortunately, the plots for these books have become cookie-cutter. I feel like I'm reading the same story over and over. Individually the books are fine; but as a series, I'm finding them repetitive. My rating: 3.5 Stars.
