Voodoo Ridge

Voodoo Ridge (#453), the third in David Freed's Cordell Logan mystery series more than lives up to the promise of the first two books. 

Fortune has finally smiled on Logan, and he and the love of his life, Savannah, are flying to Lake Tahoe to tie the knot for the second time.  As they're making their final approach to the runway at Tahoe, he spots the wreckage of a plane in a heavily wooded mountain area outside of town.  He reports what he's seen when they land, thus kicking off a series of life-altering events.  To say more would be to give away too much of the plot.  You'll just have to read it for yourself.  (In order, from the beginning to truly appreciate this story.)

Voodoo Ridge is much darker and more intense than the first two books, but every bit as gripping.  I'm just hoping that the ending signals a new turn in Cordell Logan's life, and not an end to this series.  More Cordell Logan, please, Mr. Freed!
