Endangered in the Ozarks: Inspired by Actual Events
When the local Arkansas biologist, Jim, discovers a human skeleton in a forbidden cave, the next presidential hopeful’s dream is suddenly put in jeopardy. Detective Lori Garringer, the first Native American detective for the Arkansas State Police, unwittingly manages to put Jim and others in danger as she uncovers years of a heretofore undetected Little Rock, Arkansas, conspiracy—a conspiracy that begins with a hidden family secret. Progressing with her investigation under the radar, Detective Garringer finds that the conspiracy originated a decade earlier by a puppet master, a commodity mogul, who has cleverly utilized commodity trades to fund and promote a candidate who is determined to protect the tradition at all costs. As Detective Garringer unearths the murder mystery layer-by-layer, she also discovers the sweetness of a new romance and—most importantly—she discovers herself.

This was a real page turner. I found myself eagerly rushing through it even as I dreaded finishing.
If you like detective novels, then this is right up your alley. It is a police procedural, with plenty of twists. Set in rural Arkansas the action spans the globe. An Arkansas Governor running for the White House would have seemed improbable if not for history.
The author takes us on a journey of discovery as we follow an Arkansas State Police Detective as she unravels the secrets behind a 10-year-old murder. Powerful people want the past to stay buried. Her quest leads her and several others into danger. They face close calls and tragically learn that some of the people they trusted most would betray them.
A final spice, subtly applied to this delicious tale, is just a touch of romance.
This is an interesting story of compelling characters in an exciting adventure. I highly recommend this book.

This was a fun read with many twists and turns, an action packed ending, and a nice little romance to tie it all up. If you like the outdoors and a mystery then I highly recommend this book!

Good story but
I had trouble reading this because it needs a professional edit by an editor that understands the elements of fiction writing.
