Review of "Deadly Deceit" by Natalie Walters

In the sequel to "Living Lies", we learn more about reporter Vivian DeMarco - reviled in book one, but with some redemption and understanding to be found in book two.

Vivian is back in Walton with a specific plan in mind. She has changed her ways and is determined to see her goals through. She will not get attached to anyone or any place, so don't even try....but when her boss Harold dies under suspicious circumstances, she can't ignore the possibility of foul play. Vivi is determined to find out what happened, no matter the cost.

Deputy Ryan Frost has recently returned from training at Quantico, and is being pursued by the big agencies. He's pretty sure he is going to stay a hometown boy, though - because who else will take care of his mother and sister? But between possible foul play in Harold's death, blackmail, and the intriguing reporter, his life in small town Walton has grown exponentially more exciting.

Ryan and Vivian soon find out that there is far more behind the scenes than they could imagine. Just who is The Watcher? Who is he blackmailing, and why? When the villain strikes far too close to home, Ryan and Vivian must work together to solve the mystery.

With plenty of twists and turns and some surprising answers, the author's sophomore effort does not disappoint. I am looking forward to the third book in the series!

I receive a complimentary copy of this book from Baker Publishing Group in exchange for my honest review.
