The two timeliness kept me guessing throughout and it was very engaging
I wanted to know what happened and why. yes, some of the sex scenes were unnecessary but others added to the narrative.
the narration really suited the story

"A dream to die for.
Faye-Lynn and Dr partner are called to a terrible scene - the death of a father and his four murdered children. But the mother was missing. Mercedes had entered the U.S. Illegally when only a young teenager - had she returned to her parental home, moved somewhere else, or was it more sinister than that? The reader is guided to a final resolution through present and past timelines and the points of view of both Faye Lynn and others. It is a sad, at times harrowing tale, well told with an authentic feel.
Many of the characters from previous books in the series are there
Again read by Cassandra Arnold thankfully sounding somewhat less robotic, this is definitely still a reading rather than a performance, giving the book a more newsreel feel. Some sex scenes included.
My thanks to the rights holders of Murder at the Heights who, at my request, freely gifted me with a complimentary copy. Despite certain reservations, I have enjoyed this whole series and, especially this title. Recommended to all crime story readers who enjoy a more realistic feel to their books.

Mom vanished and her family is found dead! There’s no certainty whether she escaped the hands of a murderer, or was she the murderer? Is this young mom soundlessly begging to be found? And, will the evidence be enough for lead Detective Johnson to crack the case?
Author Ricky Corum’s “Murder at the Heights” is an intriguing tale depicting common people caught up in horrific circumstances. Characters are believable and well-thought-out within the dynamic plot.
Congratulations Ricky on a first in a series! Looking forward to seeing what happens next.

This book had many twist and turns and I enjoyed it. The compelling characters, the plot, and the realistic story telling make this a great read. Great job letting the reader into the thoughts of Mercedes and her struggles to become an American.
