Book Review of Skeleton Canyon (Joanna Brady, Bk 5)

Skeleton Canyon (Joanna Brady, Bk 5)

The focus of this book is solving a hideous crime when an older teenage girl turns up dead in the mountains of southern Arizona. There is a twist and turn here and there, but all-in-all, I don't think this book is up to par with the previous four in the series. While still fairly new on the job as Sheriff, Joanna continues to struggle with being the boss to her Chief Deputy. I understand she's trying to find her role, but to let him talk to her in the way he does is unacceptable. I found this rather irritating and distracting, and lost some respect and admiration for our hero. Still, in the end the crime is solved, but this book is not my favorite of the series.
