Cracks Beneath the Surface by Mary Ann Miller


Mary Ann Miller has a devious mind. She must have a twisty mind to plot out such a Byzantine mystery.  Jhonni Laurent is the sheriff of Field’s Crossing, Indiana. She won in a contentious race full of dirty tricks by her rival. Now, she faces the monumental task of finding out who murdered one of her best friends. Her problem is magnified by not having a single suspect but having a wealth of realistic suspects.

Miller crafted a story populated by believable characters. The dysfunctional family of the victim tops the list of suspects. Their dysfunctions are easily recognized by any who have ever delved beneath the placid surface of family relations.

One murder becomes more than one, and the sheriff is bemused by how little she knew in the town she thought she knew thoroughly.

I enjoyed the Byzantine twists of this book. The characters could be people you know. Those people may be capable of actions that would grossly surprise you.

I enjoyed the book and highly recommend it.
