The Sorority Murder by Allison Brennan

-

Happy Publication Day to Allison Brennan and her book, The Sorority Murder. This is the first in a series. When I saw an available blog tour for this book, I jumped on it. The cover catches your eye. The story closely follows. Candace Swain was killed after a sorority party and her body was found a week later. The murder was never solved. Fast forward three years and Lucas Vega is looking into Candace’s murder for his podcast. Can he solve the murder?


Review

This story is set on a college campus in Arizona. The sorority involved closes ranks and refuses to help with podcast. However some of the members want to help and find ways to reach out to Lucas. Lucas also gains the help of an ex-US Marshal who is also the former sheriff's daughter. This combination gives the duo access to information and how to find information. I was hooked from the very beginning of the book. As I read more the more complex the case is and by complex I mean more people are involved than you would think.

Allison Brennan did a wonderful job with developing her characters. I can easily see where the story continues into a series and I can't wait. I want to learn more about certain characters. I also loved how the setting is incorporated into the story. It provides an excellent background for the twists and turns.

Welcome to my stop on The Children’s Book Review in partnership with Catherine Rose for her book, Coloring the Rainbow: The Power of Connection. About the Book: Coloring the Rainbow: The Power of Connection tells a story of the magic created when the unique talents of a diverse group of children are shared in a colorful adventure.

Playing his horn through his neighborhood, the boy draws other curious children to play their unique instruments along with him. Together, they played: “Lend your voice, play your part! Something grand is beginning― join us for the start!” The procession of music makers is touched with magic when their combined voices, raised in harmony, orchestrate a colorful miracle.
