Author Website: terryshames.com
Book Synopsis
Chief Samuel Craddock’s old friend Loretta Singletary–a mainstay of the Jarrett Creek community–has undergone a transformation, with a new hairstyle and modern clothes. He thinks nothing of it until she disappears. Only then does he find out she has been meeting men through an online dating site for small-town participants.
When a woman in the neighboring town of Bobtail turns up dead after meeting someone through the same dating site, Craddock becomes alarmed. Will Craddock be able to find Loretta before she suffers the same fate? Finding out what happened to Loretta forces him to investigate an online world he is unfamiliar with, and one which brings more than a few surprises.

Very nice! Congratulations!
Great cover, and I’m so glad to see another entry in one of my all-time favorite series. I think what Terry Shames accomplishes with first-person present tense is amazing and wonderful to read.
