A River of Crows by Shanessa Gluhm
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I could not put this book down!!! I wanted to...to savor the story and have time to digest it but like an addiction, I just had to know. There are so many facets to this story about Sloan, Ridge, and the rest of the Hadfield family that it's hard to really put into words an adequate review without throwing in spoilers. I don't want to do that at all!!

Sloan returns to her hometown, in the midst of a divorce, to care for her mom who's being discharged from a mental health facility. Life for them hasn't been easy for the past twenty years when Sloan's brother, Ridge, went missing and was ultimately confirmed to be murdered. Those murderous hands, according to a court of law, happen to belong to Sloan's dad.

It's when a body is discovered that has ties to Sloan's childhood that she starts to do some more digging on her own. Maybe "Digging Up Bones" will leave her "No Stranger to the Rain" but will it help her and others in end or should she just let things go?

Sloan has a love for Keith Whitley and Randy Travis, two of my favorites as well! Her love of music might be the only thing to save her sanity throughout this mess of her family!

I'm very surprised by the level of depth in this book by a fairly new author. This is only her second book but I've already got Enemies of Doves added to my TBR list! I love a great book that I can read in one setting that will haunt me for a few days!
