“Wildwood” by Amy Pease
Published by Atria (Simon & Schuster)
Almost exactly 2 years ago, I read and reviewed the author’s
debut novel and first in this series, “Northwoods”. I enjoyed it and gave it 3 stars. With “Wildwood”, I found her writing improved
and thus enjoyed this one even more. Not
quite a 4-star read, but close. It’s a “small
town, big crimes” thriller. Not an edge
of your seat thriller, but one with danger and action throughout. And it has the same 3 main characters from
the first book – a cop who is a former soldier with PTSD as well as a
recovering alcoholic; his mother who is the town sheriff; and an FBI officer based
out of Chicago. Their personalities are
all quite different, but they work well together.
Thank you to NetGalley and Atria for the complimentary
copy of this book. As always, the
opinions expressed within this honest review are completely my own.
Finished 1/5/25 – 3.5/5 stars
