No Accident

Posadas County Mysteries, Book 25

By: Steven F. Havill

Narrated by: Stephanie Brush

Good cops have no use for coincidence. When a driver slams his pickup truck—twice—into a tandem bike being ridden by Carlos Guzman and his fiancée, Tasha, in Briones, California, it's more than a simple hit-and-run; the driver clearly intended to harm them. Undersheriff Estelle Reyes-Guzman gets the call with the news of her son's accident and wastes no time racing to his side. She is greeted by Police Captain Eddie Mitchell, formerly of Posadas County, who allows Estelle to "consult" on the investigation—but only to a point. While Carlos struggles with critical injuries, an employee at the bike shop where Carlos bought the tandem is found shot dead in a dumpster—the same man who had borrowed the truck that mowed down Carlos and Tasha. The local cops aren't convinced there's any connection between the two crimes. Not a believer in coincidence, Estelle pursues every possible angle with a cop's determination to solve the case, and a mother's resolve to keep her son safe at any cost.

Story good - Narrator needs practice

Narrator cannot properly enunciate the Spanish words used in the story. She needs practice and/or lessons in Spanish.

Love all his books

I've been an addict of these books since Heart Shot in the original series. Great clean work.

Disapointing ending

I have been and big fan of SFH , but this book fell short of his usual storytelling.

NO ACCIDENT

This is another good book about Estelle Reyes Gusman. I have liked all of these books. In this one Estelle's son has been in an accident. She goes to him , He's in another state. What I liked about this is the way the sheriff's and law enforcement treated her. They for the most part welcomed her and her experience. A little resistant but I liked how they worked together. Estelle is determined to find out who ran over her son. This may be my favorite one so far. It was easy to follow and it kept me interested and wanting to find out how it was going to play out. Stephanie Brush does a great job narrating this book. If my review is any help will you please click on the helpful link below. Thank you.

Disappointing ending.

Loved that Eddie Mitchell was brought back for this book. Not enough of Bill Gastner. Nice buildup for the ending, only to be let down- compared to previous books. Prefer narrator Rusty Nelson.
