Questioning her past and yearning to find the mother she's never met, Gina hires Reed to find answers. With the help of his wife, Willie, his best friend Cal, and the always amusing Goofball Brothers, Reed's search for Gina's mother leads him to a rural Colorado town and a puzzling mystery that involves a decades-old kidnapping, a powerful small-town mayor, a seductively charming pastor, and an unsolved murder. And if Reed isn't careful, the murderer's focus could turn to him.Small Town Focus is a suspense-filled mystery, with a Bogie-wannabe detective, a dose of humor, and a clever homage to film noir.

"Small Town Focus," by Renee Pawlish, is another stellar entry in the wonderful Reed Ferguson series. If you haven't read these books yet, you need to do so right away, as you are definitely missing out on a treat. Renee has blended many genres together quite well in this series. Within each book, you'll find a mystery of course, but there is also light humor and romance. Although the books are set in modern day, Ms. Pawlish captures the feel of a detective noir from the 30s and 40s, and sometimes things can get quite dark for Reed and Co. In some instances, her books can also feel like a cozy. If you like intriguing mysteries with original plots, likable characters that you want to spend more time with, and crisp, witty dialogue, you need to read this book, as well as all the rest in the series, as soon as possible.
