A Mysterious Review of …
Devil's Moon by Matthew Marine.
Review summary: This is a nicely structured, evenly paced police procedural, one that takes advantage of the changing nature of a once isolated, but now much less so, Arizona city. A fairly obvious clue to the killer's identity is given early on, but one that doesn't lessen the reader's interest in the story. (Click here for text of full review.)

Publisher synopsis: Secrets shrouded in a tourist town An FBI agent tortured by his past A murder the local police don't want solved Sedona, Arizona: A young woman is found mutilated in a police officer's basement, his confession scrawled on the wall above his lifeless body. The local police rule the case a murder-suicide, but the dead officer's sister isn't convinced. She persuades rundown FBI Agent Stuart Ransom to conduct an off-the-books investigation. With her help, Ransom realizes that the police appear to be hiding the truth behind the gruesome murder. Now he must question everything — from the case to his own beliefs — before his past becomes the killer's next target.
