I SHALL NOT WANT

Clare Fergusson becomes aware of the needs of migrant workers when she meets a nun who has dedicated her life to helping migrants. Several of the workers have been found murdered and Russ Van Alstyne and his police force are hard at work to find the killers. Of course, this puts Clare and Russ back together to find the killers and to help the migrant workers. Russ' sister becomes involved as the migrant workers, both legal and illegal have been working on her farm. There is a killer on the loose and no one is quite sure who or what he is after.

Julia Spencer Fleming has become one of my favorite authors and this book in the series was one of the best yet. The relationship between Russ and Clare remains strained. Russ is still living with his mother and Clare has re-enlisted with the National Guard. Both are trying to live their lives and deny the attraction between them. Clare is trying to be the priest she strives to be and Russ is trying to heal the wounds after his wife's death along with his guilt for the break in their marriage before she died.

Rating - A+
