Alone in the Wild: A Rockton Novel - Kelley Armstrong

Alone in the Wild (Rockton, #5)Alone in the Wild by Kelley Armstrong
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Another hit in the Rockton series and actually this one was out of the ballpark! The author gives us our usual suspense, murder, intrigue, and even some light comedy.

As usual, this book was well written and it has the characters of Eric Dalton and Casey growing even more - especially with a baby involved! We don't deal as much with the townspeople as we usually do, we deal and learn more about, the outsiders and the more wild people and these groups can be a little frightening. Kelly has brought in new characters that I hope are better fleshed out and used more in later books.

In #1 New York Times bestseller Kelley Armstrong's latest thriller, the hidden town of Rockton is about to face a challenge none of them saw coming: a baby.
Every season in Rockton seems to bring a new challenge. At least that's what Detective Casey Duncan has felt since she decided to call this place home. Between all the secretive residents, the sometimes-hostile settlers outside, and the surrounding wilderness, there's always something to worry about.
While on a much needed camping vacation with her boyfriend, Sheriff Eric Dalton, Casey hears a baby crying in the woods. The sound leads them to a tragic scene: a woman buried under the snow, murdered, a baby still alive in her arms.
A town that doesn’t let anyone in under the age of eighteen, Rockton must take care of its youngest resident yet while solving another murder and finding out where the baby came from - and whether she's better off where she is.
#1 New York Times bestselling author Kelley Armstrong again delivers an engaging, tense thriller set in perhaps the most interesting town in all of contemporary crime fiction.
