“The Unlikely Predator” by Wayne Hancock

I’ve finished reading this one today and thought I’d share. Back on April 17th, I asked my readers to pick my next read and this was the book that got the most votes. I really enjoyed this book from start to finish. There was a lot going on in this book, enough to keep me entertained, but not so much that I couldn’t keep up with what was going on in the story. I love a good mystery and this book didn’t disappoint. I liked the characters in this book, especially Irv, and I also like the time frame this book was set in. {Note: I’d recommend this book for adults only.}

Synopsis: Irv pulled the patrol car into the parking lot in front of the restaurant and got out. He walked to the edge of the bluff and looked down at the river. Spring rains upstream had caused the river to rise a little above normal, and the brown water swirled and eddied below, carrying an occasional log or tree branch with it… He could see Jean Young’s body drifting in the muddy water all the way to where the river made a big loop to the north.

Murder and intrigue unfold in a small Missouri town in Wayne Hancock’s The Unlikely Predator, as two mysterious murders in a little over three years put a burden on an undermanned sheriff’s department; yet a determined sheriff and a small-town merchant rise to the occasion. Two of their biggest problems solve themselves. Read how in this exciting novel by the author of Gotcha! and 30 Days In may.
