 Book 4 of 7: Martin Rhodes

A convicted homicide detective gets involved in an investigation that is more personal than he ever thought imaginable. 

Former Detective Martin Rhodes spent ten years in prison for murder. Upon his release, he travels from town to town in search of employment and a new life. An unexpected call takes him to the Town of Parish. His ex-wife's current husband is charged with murder and she wants Rhodes to help exonerate him of the crime. After all these years, Rhodes still has feelings for his ex-wife but he must fight them in his pursuit of the truth.

My 5 Star Rating TITLED:  Worth every moment of reading

Martin Rhodes is reluctant to open that door when his ex-wife Angela now Fulton begs for his help.  His best friend, Detective Tom Nolan is the only one that he has kept in touch with and it's' only so often that he reaches out to him.  Now he's kind of sorry that he did.  Nolan has agreed to pass  Angela's message to Martin when he calls the next time. Martin has suffered so much in prison the last 10 years but at 6'4' tall and with a mean streak when he needs it, he survived. Martin is also smart and clever in his own way !He doesn't totally blame Angela for not hanging on  for him although too late he sees he was never really there for her.  Angela's husband Harold is a nice man; the total opposite of Martin. Martin knows that Harold will never survive prison if he doesn't help.  Angela needs Harold and so do their 2 children.  

Kevin Williams was the homeless man that got killed and just about everyone is convinced that Harold did it.  This story was emotional without being sappy and after awhile I began to suspect someone who was the real killer.  It was very satisfying to not only be right but the incredible twist on that person begin exposed. I never saw that coming and I loved that. Now I want to read more adventures of Martin Rhodes because now he has left that little town.
