Review & Description
Blind Malice is the first in a series of murder mystery novels set in the Appalachian Mountains of North Carolina starring Rachel Myers as the amateur sleuth who seems to become involved in murder, whether or not she chooses. Rachel is not a professional dectective, policeman, or deputy. However, long divorced and with a strong aversion to personal committment, her rather mundane job as administrator of a retirement/nursing home leaves her plenty of time to assuage her curiosity about whodunit?
In Blind Malice, Rachel comes home from Arizona to Laurel Hill, North Carolina for her father's funeral and quickly discovers a series of mysterious events surrounding his death. While Rachel's natural ability for solving all kinds of intricate puzzles helps in her search, it is tenacity, and trust in that little spark that says she's on the right track that results in the truth. Blind Malice is a fast-paced story of a daughter paying tribute to her father by eventually uncovering some profound secrets of his past and coming face to face with the menace that led to his death.
One reviewer said the shocking ending is like lifting a blanket of Rhododendron blossoms and finding a rattlesnake underneath.
