Mysterious, quirky, flirty and spiritually refreshing, Down in High Country is a thrilling and entertaining romp through a loveable mountain town and its dark underbelly of criminal activity. Montana Kane continues this highly enjoyable series by delivering another engaging, humorous, sensual and intriguing story.
Private Investigator Brandy Martini is hired by a couple to find out if their daughter, the enchanting Kara, is involved in a cult. Given Boomville, Colorado has a bevy of eccentric characters, Brandy has her work cut out for her during an investigation that requires her to distinguish from the usual strange conduct versus potentially criminal behavior. Meanwhile, Brandy is looking over her shoulder for a dangerous stalker that haunts her dreams while also fighting her own romantic feelings for the local police lieutenant. Filled with drum circles, open mike nights, concerts, weed café openings and entrancing scents, Brandy must navigate many obstacles in order to get to the bottom of what’s rotten in Boomville and maybe finally find her place in this distinctive town.
You’ll fall in love with this colorful cast of characters, each one bringing their uniqueness to the fabric of a wacky community. Providing a whimsical balance for Brandy’s intense focus on being a reliable professional. That’s not to say the main character can’t let loose in her own way. But while she’s on the job it’s the supporting characters – the house of bong, the well-intentioned sister, the enigmatic sheriff’s deputy, the buxom bartender, the elderly weed café owner and her weed-growing son, and many others – who make this tale so delightful and spirited while Brandy is doing the serious work of tracking down dangerous criminals who are targeting the very fine citizens of Boomville.
Down in High Country is simultaneously thrilling and charming. Chasing danger and pleasure in equal measure. A book that keeps you guessing from start to finish while inviting you to become a part of an enchanting and adventurous little society.
