Book Description for KILL AND RUN:
Five women with seemingly nothing in common are found brutally murdered in a townhome outside Washington, DC. Among the many questions surrounding the massacre is what had brought these apparent strangers together only to be killed.
Taking on his first official murder case, Lieutenant Murphy Thornton, USN, believes that if he can uncover the thread connecting the victims, then he can find their murderer.
The case takes an unexpected turn when Murphy discovers that one of the victims has a connection to his stepmother, Homicide Detective Cameron Gates. One wintry night, over a dozen years before, her first husband, a Pennsylvania State trooper, had been run down while working a night shift on the turnpike.
In this first installment of the Thorny Rose Mysteries, the Lovers in Crime join newlyweds Lieutenant Murphy Thornton and Jessica Faraday to sift through a web of lies and cover-ups. Together, can the detectives of the Thorny Rose uncover the truth without falling victim to a cunning killer?

My Review :
A very well written mystery book with twists and turns that kept me up till late at night to finish reading. I couldn’t put it down so I continued to read it till I was completely done with this story. Lauren Care is one of my favorite authors and I love reading her books. There just so good. She has a way to grab your attention.
The storyline was very well written. Had lots of action and mystery. Did not disappoint that’s for sure. The characters were very well developed and the the details of the murders were done well also and made me believe I was part of the action. The book cover I loved it was beautiful.
Looking forward to reading more of Lauren Carr’s books. A job well done. Highly recommend to cozy reader fans, and mystery lovers. You won’t be dissaponted.

Lauren Carr is a new author to me. The book cover is eye-catching, and the excerpt is good! There’s nothing like a murder mystery to keep one up at night because you just can’t put the book down! From the excerpt I’d say this is one like that. Looking forward to reading it!
