Review: Hunting Lure (Decoy Series #1) by Robert W. Walker
Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 10 6, 2012
Ryne Lanark and Shannon KeyesLt. Ryne Lanark had reached the bottom of the barrel as far as assignments go. But that doesn't mean he isn't still giving his best to try to find not only a serial killer but the killers of his family. The problem is, he just can't keep it together. Now the powers-that-be, in their infinite wisdom have given him a new partner. One they hope he won't get killed, maimed or run in fear for their life.Shannon Keyes is on the fast track. Well liked and given promotions a little faster than the average, there is something about her that Ryne is not quite sure of. Unable to manipulate his way out of being partnered with her, he decides to make the best of a bad situation and try to keep her alive. Since he seems to have a reputation for being hard on partners this may be a major effort in itself.This is a very good detective novel/police procedural that has a tightly woven plot, lots of action and well developed characters. The dialog reads as realistic, the protagonists have enough back story to round them out and the plotline keeps the reader guessing.A good one I would easily recommend.Karen Bryant Doering,Parents' Little Black BookMistBlueEeyore@gmail.com
