Hmm. I'm not really sure what to say about this entry other than that it was just okay. It was definitely the weakest in the Grant County series, and even though the first few books were great, I feel like most of the characters are starting to run out of steam.
The book starts off with Jeffery and Sara arguing again (no surprise there) until one of them trips on a pipe sticking out of the ground. After digging it out, they find that it is connected to a meticulously designed box. The box contains something that jumpstarts the next case.
We spend the rest of the book with the pair and their police cohorts searching the county for clues.
The story was fairly ordinary and had some obvious revelations towards the end. I would say this series is known for that, but there are usually a few shocking revelations thrown in. The procedural elements are very ho-hum; most of the suspects are easy to spot, and the twists were not all that thrilling.
That's pretty much it. No highs and no lows; just okay.
