Review: Targeted - Book #4 Callahan and McLane Series - Kendra Elliot - June 2016 After reading a few bullymances in a row, I decided it was time to read a mystery book and as I was undecided what to read, I picked up a Kendra Elliot as she never fails me as I find she is one of my favorite female mystery authors. Targeted is set during Halloween and brings out the love of Horror movies into this book. We are also reunited with the characters, Mason Callahan and Ava McLane. The story starts with Mason and three of his law enforcement buddies out camping when he wakes up the next morning and finds his captain Denny dead wearing a Pinhead mask. The book then jumps to Ava and her partner Zander (FBI) being called as the MO of the Halloween mask matches one of their previous agent’s murder as he was wearing a Freddy Krueger mask. As the book goes on, we have a couple of storylines from the main one of someone murdering law enforcement officers and if they don't catch them in time, Maso...

Review: Vanished - Book #1 Callahan and McLane Series - Kendra Elliot - June 2014 Scrolling through my kindle looking for a book to reach my 350th read for the year, I came across a mystery read from Kendra Elliot as she is one of my favorite indie mystery female authors. I have read a few later books that featured Mason Callahan and Ava McLane and Vanished it shows how the two characters met.  One of Mason's CI has just been murdered and during the investigation, he gets a call from his ex-wife Robin.

Review: Bridged - Book #2 Callahan and McLane Series - Kendra Elliot - February 2015 Whenever I am on holiday or have a break, I try and make it a mission to clear some of my older reads off my devices and my TBR piles. Needing a mystery to mix up my reading tastes lately, I scrolled through to a Kendra Elliot read - she is one of my favorite female mystery writers. In Bridged, it starts with a male throwing a guy over the bridge and making it look like a hanging. The guy was a congressman and so of course the FBI is called to the scene. The next few deaths cause us to realize that the killer has a list and is trying to clean up messes and getting revenge on those that harmed a female in the past as our killer doesn't have long to live as he is dying himself. Over the next course of the novel we will read as the FBI tries to help solve the case and of course, those who have read the other books in this series will recall that Ava has a twin sister Jayne who is always in trouble, an...
