Wonderful book

In book 3 of the series, Nick is once again not looking for a murder but he gets involved in the latest crime. I hope the romance with Sandra goes somewhere in the future books.

Interesting story premise

I just finished the novella Strangled in Sacramento: Capital City Murders Book #3. The premise for the series is intriguing and I look forward to each new book.

The protagonist Nick O'Flannigan is a freelance photographer and an amateur detective. Nick has a contract to take photos of the capitol buildings in each of the 50 US capital cities over a period of 50 weeks for Travel USA magazine. While in Sacramento, CA, he also assists the police in identifying a serial strangler.

Although I enjoyed the story very much, I wish that it had been longer so that the plot could have been more develop.

Book # 3 but a good stand alone book

In this book you have a professional photographer on assignment going across the country to fifty states capitals to take photos for a book. This book is taking place in Sacramento, California. The storyline is well developed and interesting with believable and likeable characters. You haveva strangular roaming the city. You have a camera stolen from tbe photographer. I can't go into more detail without giving away the storyline. This is a short story with twists enough to maintain your interest. The end will surprise the best sleuths. I enjoyed this book

A well-written story from a very good author

Strangled in Sacramento: Capital City Murders Book #3, my sixth read from author Troy Lambert. After reading Silenced in Salt Lake: Capital City Murders Book #11, my first (short) read from author Troy Lambert, I wanted to read more in the series and this one doesn't disappoint. I look forward to reading more in this series & from this author. (RIP Marley January 20, 2014 - July 24, 2018).

Short but good

Another great short story that follows a traveling photographer who ends up finding a mystery murder in the town he is supposed to be taking photos. I enjoy that each book talks about the history of the town while bring in a mystery murder.
