Buried In The House
ISBN: 978194806253
By Christine Husom
A 2024 release from
The wRight Press
Nationally recognized author Husom does it again with a carefully conceived and written crime novel of the sometimes plodding research by the rural and closely connected Winnebago County Deputies. The careful efforts and struggles of law enforcement and crime-scene specialists to collect the evidence from a corpse and the search of a cluttered crime scene become important factors in the story. Personal relationships are many in this close-knit unit. Climbing a tall ladder to a high second floor window as the only entrance to a crime scene is definitely out of the ordinary for these officers. Not only is the physical scene of a suspicious death a contributing factor to a level of confusion, it brings to the strong narrative several forks in the trail to resolution. Complicated and overlapping relationships, on both sides of the law, overlaid with varied settings, enrich the narrative. If the dialogue at times borders on the formal, this team is careful, dedicated, interesting, and they operate in a richly described environment. Readers of this enjoyable experience will complete the reading of this crime novel with a good sense of satisfaction.
