The Devil In Merrivale
by Jackie Griffey
The Devil in Merrivale
From the Publisher:

Murder isn’t the usual order of business in the little town of Merrivale, Tennessee, so the brutal stabbing death of popular high school student Denise Davis sends a shock through the community. Sheriff Cas Larkin is determined to find the killer, and the last thing he needs is distractions like the increasing reports of missing cattle and other livestock.

But as he digs deeper, Cas uncovers another mystery–a strange “club” the members are afraid to talk about, and for good reason. One of the recruits is brutally beaten when he refuses to take the club’s activities seriously. He also refuses to talk about those activities–until they turn turn deadly.
There’s something dark and sinister going on in Merrivale, and if Cas can’t figure out what it is and put a stop to it, there’ll be the devil to pay.

My Review: 
What a fun mystery!  
Clean language.
Good plot.
Likable characters.
Think modern day Andy Griffin, without Barney:-)

 Sheriff Cas Larkin, needs to solve the murder of Denise Davis,
who was a student at his daughters high school.
Things get sticky when it looks like
a local judge’s son might be involved.

Missing cows, a strange club…”goats”,
it all leads up to a very shocking and heart breaking ending.



I’m certainly looking forward to Griffey’s next cozy mystery!
