    Shandra Higheagle is a potter living in a small town in Idaho. She loves her town, her home, her dog, and her friends. She's a talented potter, but she's also nosey. So when people turn up dead--two on her very land--she thinks she should be involved in solving the murders. The county detective assigned to the cases, and who is falling in love with Shandra, doesn't generally agree. Shandra sticks her nose in anyway. These books are not heavy crime stories filled with lots of brutality and ugliness, but they are very good mysteries that leave you wondering until the end. he protagonists are interesting people with stories of their own to tell. Jager writes well and doesn't spend a lot of time giving you paragraph after paragraph of information you don't care about. My only complaint--and since I'm sometimes picky so most of you won't even notice this--is, did Sharndra go to New Mexico or Arizona to visit galleries interested in her pottery? One page Jager says N.M. The next page AZ. And once in a while I question whether or not something is grammatically correct. A good copy editor should be catching those things. I find these books worth reading, and intend to read all in the series.

    I have liked all three books of the Shandra Higheagle Mystery series. It was pretty easy to guess who the murder was, but there were twists in the series that surprised me. I like the relationship between Shandra and Ryan.

    Shandra finds her third dead body. This one was on her land and was more gruesome. She called Detective Ryan Greer directly.

    Shandra Higheagle is a potter. She brought her land because it has the clay on her land for her to use. Shandra has had bad luck in romance department so she is taking her time slowly with Ryan. She has dreams and sees her grandma that has deceased and the dreams have clues for the mystery. Shandra is half Indian.

    Detective Ryan Greer is more serious about Shandra but he is willing to take it slowly. He does take Shandra to his brother's wedding to his old girl friend.

    No one really likes the dead guy. He has private hunts on his land that is not all legal, sleeps around and treats his wife badly.

    This is a fast read and enjoyable story. I will look for more Paty Jager books in the future.

    This series is a nice blend of romance and mysteries. In the third there still not much about Shandra's story.
    Shandra is riding on her land when comes across a dead person as the animals were feeding on him. It was not a pretty sight. She calls Ryan Greer who soon arrives to take over the investigation. The body is identified as Shandra's neighbor. He had plenty of enemies including his wife, the fish and game warden, his employees and he was a womanizer. The tale several changes of direction. The romance between Shandra and Ryan continues. The ending was a surprise to me, I didn't see it coming.
    I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this book and series
  • Reviewed in the United States on July 10, 2017
    This story was even more intense than ever, Shandra kept me guessing what she would get into next.

    But I get very excited watching her and Ryan working together to catch the killers.

    I do hope the next story has Ryan and Shandra finally becoming a couple. And that they both tell each other what happened to them before.

    I'm anxious to start the next book of this series. I'm loving these stories.

    If you like mystery, love and adventures please read the book, it's excellent!

    Jager's characters are developing as their relationships evolve. I prefer for motivations to be explained by storyline depth rather than author explanation each time a character does something. Side stories are much more intriguing to character development and the author is beginning this style. Much better story development.

    This is a good blend of mystery 'Who done it' with native Am. customs and romance blended in. This is the third book in the series and if you haven't read them all you should - i can't wait for the next one to come out. If you are looking for another GOOD read you should try her Halsey brother series Western romance family ties i hope those keep coming too.
