Madeline's search for answers to her father's disappearance leads to trouble for both her and her adopted family the Montgomerys. Madeline hires a private detective to uncover the truth that she needs to find out about her father. The answers lead her into danger and give her more than she bargained for. Dead Right is the final installment of the Stillwater Trilogy. The 3rd novel was just as good as the others in the series; Dead Silence (book #1) and Dead Giveaway (book #2). What impressed me the most with all 3 books was the depth of the characters. They are characters that you can really feel for. Madeline and the Montgomery’s are a family that have been though so much. You just want everything to work out and for them to all be happy and finally put the past behind them. I only fault I found with Dead Right was the ending. I thought it was rushed. I was also surprised at how quickly Clay trusted Hunter. Considering how protective he was of his family over the years. I do want to warn any readers that are a little more sensitive. This series of books deals with the act of child abuse and molestation. It does have some graphic details in it. Pedophiles disgust me, but I think all 3 books have more love in them than disgust and hate. Overall I was very impressed with the whole series. I enjoyed every page. Seid 20 Jahren ist Reverend Barker verschwunden. Seid 20 Jahren werden die Montgomerys verdächtigt, etwas mit dessen Verschwinden zu tun zu haben. Madeline ist die leibliche Tochter des Reverend. Sie sieht die Montgomerys als ihre Familie an und glaubt nicht an deren Schuld. Aber sie muss unbedingt wissen, was mit ihrem Vater geschehen ist. Als Leser weiß man schon, was mit dem Revernd geschehen ist - und auch warum. Madeline hat aber keine Ahnung. Als das Auto ihres Vaters gefunden wird, heuert sie verzweifelt einen Privatdetektiv aus L.A. an. Hunter Solozano hat erst gerade eine schlimmer Scheidung hinter sich. Eigentlich hat er keine Lust, in die Südstaaten zu fahren und dort einen Mann zu suchen. Aber Ablenkung kann er immer gebrauchen und so fährt er letztendlich doch. Eigentlich dachte ich, der Krimi könnte nicht mehr wirklich spannend sein. Aber es gibt doch noch einige überraschende Wendungen und Madeline irgendjemand möchte verhindern, das sie weiter ermittelt. Aber langsam kommt die Wahrheit ans Licht und mit Madeline habe ich richtig mit gelitten, als sie die grausamen Fakten erfuhr. Dazu kommt auch in diesem Teil wieder eine schöne Liebesgeschichte zwischen Madeline und Hunter. Eine tolle Trilogie für Romantic Suspense Fans mit einem grandiosen Abschluß. Der letzte Band bekommt von mir volle Punktzahl. ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu

Worse, the police find something in the trunk that says there's more to this case than murder. With no other recourse, Madeline decides to hire a private investigator--even if the cops don't like it.

That being said, I thought this book was excellent. We got to see the story from another point of view, which was interesting. The story wouldn't have been as suspenseful had we not had this part of the story. All of the events leading up to the climax of this book really grabbed me; I could hardly put the book down. The fact that we had more detail about the family story made the final chapters all that more suspenseful and "omg, what's going to happen."
Madeline and Hunter make a good couple from the beginning, since she's so stuck in the past that she can't let go, and him being as damaged as he is. Some people have said it's unrealistic that Maddy would be intimate with Hunter so quickly, but 1)it's a book, they don't have a lot of time to "get to know each other" and 2)their relationship became emotionally intimate and charged very quickly, which leads to people (real and fiction characters) doing things they wouldn't normally do or feel very close to someone (or "in love").
Overall, a good closing book in the "Dead" series. I would say it's not for the weak of heart, but I don't think that the details that Brenda Novak gives are too intense. It's just enough to let us know how bad Lee Barker was, how bad Grace really had it since we never heard actual incidents before, and for us to know what's in store for Maddy. Definitely read if you've read the other two books in the series. ( )
