Crosshairs by Patricia Bradley gives readers another mystery set in Natchez, Mississippi. Ainsley Beaumont is definitely in someone’s crosshairs. She is sent to her hometown of Natchez to investigate a murder, but finds herself in the middle of several mysteries, not to mention a killer that wants her dead. Lincoln Steele joins her in the investigation, but also to protect her.
I like the complex layers of the story. Someone’s after Ainsley, but is it the murderer from her current investigation, a former inmate she put in prison, or someone who is after some recently discovered diaries her great aunt found? As the story unfolds, Ainsley and Linc’s relationship rekindles. Both have some regrets from the past, and the danger brings them closer together.
I highly recommend this story if you like complex plots, investigative stories, killers on the loose, and suspense!
