The plot thickens even more when no one claims to have seen a thing. That is until the day a stranger is found murdered on the steps of the courthouse in broad daylight. Crime is so rare the local newspaper has trouble filling its weekly publication with anything more than human interest stories. As a small southern town where everyone knows everybody, nothing ever happens without the whole town knowing it in minutes. Well, not quite, but Hidden Springs, Kentucky could be its twin. Despite my receiving the book free, it has not influenced my judgment. All opinions expressed are my own, and I was not required, or influenced, to give anything but an honest appraisal.

The publisher has provided me with a complimentary copy of Murder at the Courthouse through Revell Publishing for the purpose of review. I really enjoyed it, and highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys well-written, wholesome mysteries. This 5-star book is done from a Christian viewpoint, and has lots of intriguing characters. However, this story definitely stands on its own. Murder at the Courthouse is the first in The Hidden Springs Mysteries, and I look forward to future installments.

This is a great mystery with an interesting story that kept me guessing "whodunit" to the end. Before it is all through, even more mysterious happenings take place in Hidden Springs. And finally, the teenager Anthony that the entire town claims is nothing but trouble, but Michael has a feeling that might not be completely true. Next, the local newspaper editor who is dogging all his steps, determined to get some hard news for the paper. First, the return of his childhood sweetheart, Alex. Three more things complicate Michael's life. As he works on this murder case, he feels those lost memories are starting to stir, but they remain just out of reach of his mind.

As a teenager, an accident took the life of both his parents, and left Michael with a large memory loss. But as he tries to find out the truth, his job is made more difficult by the bumbling sheriff, and surprisingly, Michael's own past. The deputy sheriff, Michael Keane, doesn't believe that. In the town where nobody misses a thing, yet there are no witnesses? At least that is what everyone is saying.

Well, not quite, but Hidden Springs, Kentucky, could be its twin.
