Mercy Creek

A Jo Wyatt Mystery, Book 2

By: M. Browning

Narrated by: Kirsten Potter

The late summer heat in Echo Valley, Colorado, turns lush greenery into a tinder-dry landscape. When a young girl mysteriously disappears, long-buried grudges rekindle. Of the two Flores girls, Marisa was the one people pegged for trouble. Her younger sister, Lena, was the quiet daughter, dutiful and diligent - right until the moment she vanished.

Detective Jo Wyatt is convinced the 11-year-old girl didn’t run away and that a more sinister reason lurks behind her disappearance. For Jo, the case is personal, reaching far back into her past. But as she mines Lena’s fractured family life, she unearths a cache of secrets and half-lies that paints a darker picture.

As the evidence mounts, so do the suspects, and when a witness steps forward with a shocking new revelation, Jo is forced to confront her doubts - and her worst fears. Now, it's just a matter of time before the truth is revealed...or the killer makes another deadly move.

amazing!

I can't wait for the next Jo Wyatt mystery! held me on the edge of my seat til.the end!

Completely Wowed!

Wanted to give new authors a shot and try out something new. So glad I did! This is the second book in the series, but I didn’t feel lost at all; it was explained just enough. Not too brief, not so long that you’d FF through it if you did read the first book. Currently listening to the first one and cannot WAIT for a follow up.

Another awesome book in the series!

This is the second book in the Jo Wyatt mystery series. You get to join Jo and her partner as they work to solve the disappearance of an 11 yr old girl in the small town of Echo Valley in SW Colorado. As they work to solve this case and find the girl you learn more about Jo and her growing up in Echo Valley. You see just how much grit and determination Jo has when it comes to solving a case. Jo never gives up. There is a great depth to the twists and with each one they bring a new piece of the puzzle. BUT the twists and turns bring a end that I did not see the coming, well done M.E. Browning
I love books with strong women characters and this book series delivers. At the end you want justices to be served just as Jo does. I really hope there are more books to come in this series because I feel Jo is only getting started.
The narrator does a great job and I think she is perfect for Jo.

Police officer navigates family drama and murder in a small town

This audio book hooked me right away, but the excellent plot and believable characters kept me listening. Murder, misleading information in the investigation, a missing child, fighting (divorced) parents, and Office Jo's personal relationship with both enthralled me! I am ready to read the next in this series!
