My Thoughts:
Standoff is the first in the Natchez Trace Park Rangers series that promises to be outstanding reads. Danger is lurking in many forms along the Mississippi River and Luke Fereday and Brooke Danvers seem to be in the thick of all of it. Luke by choice and Brooke not so much.
This is not only a murder mystery but a tight thriller as well. With all the characters in play, I never really knew along with Brooke and Luke who could be trusted or who was crooked. And Brooke is going through a lot of emotional trauma from everything that is happening to her. How her life could turn upside down so quickly- from getting ready to become a ranger to her father being murdered, and then herself being hunted. It was enough to have my head spinning.
Throw in politics and a bit of romance, half-truths, deception, murder- and these park rangers have a full plate.
