A young couple decides to trade city lights for the twinkling stars of Branson, Missouri to fulfill their lifelong dream of owning a small-town tavern. But their idyllic country life filled with music and laughter takes a dark turn when a simple evening walk along the Ozark shoreline spirals into a whirlwind of chaos.
A forged loan application ignites a chain reaction of events leading to a shocking kidnapping and a string of murders that has the local sheriff's office scrambling to uncover the truth.
What started out as a dream quickly transforms into a nightmare as innocent people find themselves caught in a web of crime, betrayal, and one multi-million-dollar secret. With each twist more unexpected then the last, the real question is: who will make it out alive?
Expect a Fast-Paced, Small Town Mystery. I enjoyed the novel's smaller-town setting and could relate to the city-transplant couple as they navigated the realistic small-town community and law enforcement. The novel does a great job transporting readers to the slower-paced Branson, Missouri, while keeping the thrills moving with an assortment of crimes and surprises. The novel moves quickly and is never boring or confusing. While there are plenty of twists and turns, none of them seem misplaced or unbelievable.
A Large Cast of Characters Brings Various Perspectives. The novel brings together many characters as the individual pieces of the storylines connect and deliver pieces of the mystery puzzle. The characters, like the plot twists, serve purposes and are well-drawn to keep the pace moving from beginning to end.
Would I Recommend A Table Rock Mystery by Tom Wood? Fans of mysteries and thrillers will enjoy this fast-paced novel. There are plenty of surprises and much to learn as the novel progresses. I enjoyed the author's writing style, character interactions, and setting development. I would recommend this book to fans of light thrillers with believable twists and turns, and I look forward to reading more from this author.
Tom Wood became a reporter and byline journalist at four newspapers in suburban Chicago after retiring from the U.S. Postal Service. After Alone Along Writers' Roads, published in 2024, A Table Rock Mystery is his second published novel.
