Delta Crossroads reader favorite Cage Foster returns in this exciting new mystery/detective series.

When a hoarder is found dead in his bathtub, Cage Foster believes he's dealing with a natural death. A perimeter search reveals a hidden horror, and clues point to the kidnapping of a local girl once presumed dead.

Cage races to find the girl, but family matters interfere, pitting Cage’s loyalty to Dani against the sworn duties of his job. Complicating matters is the newly appointed Delta Regional Medical Examiner–a woman with no intentions of confining herself to the morgue.

A girl’s life hangs in the delicate balance of Mississippi’s Homochitto National Forest. Will Cage find the living victim before it’s too late, or will her death haunt his conscience?

Another WOW

Once again Stacy has spun her magic and transported me to the Mississippi Delta, back to old friends with new problems as their lives change and they work to meet the challenges! Stacy's writing skills once again takes center stage here and with just words alone we feel the urgency as they race through the backwoods of a southern forest to find a missing girl, a girl abducted months ago and now her and her kidnapper has resurfaced. This was a fast read, one reason being that once I picked it up I couldn't put it down! Cage Foster fights with his need to catch this monster and rescue the girl and to be with his wife as they face their own threat to their growing family.
Thank you Stacy, great job!

Fast high pace

This was a fast paced easy read. I really like this author. Having read the all of her other books I was following the characters. I knew their history. I would suggest that the previous books be read first starting with "The Tin God." The trilogy set for prime readers isn't expensive. The reason I gave this a 4 is it seemed rushed like an author trying to meet a deadline. It is fast paced and intense. I will continue to read her work. I want to continue following the characters she develops.

A Brand New Awesome Series!

What an amazing book! I am so glad Cage Foster is back. Cage is now a criminal investigator in this new series Delta Detectives. He is engage to Dani who is pregnant with their child. Cage is trying to keep his town safe and keep his pregnant fiance happy at the same time. This is a fast paced mystery with lots of twists and turns as Cage tries to find a missing girl. It will keep you on the edge of your seat and guessing what will happen all the way to the end of the book. I loved every minute of it and I can't wait for the next book in the series.

I liked the book but I was highly disappointed that you never get fully introduced to the villain. You don't get to meet him at all besides how he is described there.

Another great series!

Reviewed in the United States on May 25, 2015

This is Book 1 in the Delta Detective Series. Cage Foster returns in this series along with some of the other characters from the Delta Crossroads Trilogy.

When Cage is called out to a Hoarders home, he discovers it is much more than meets the eye. Filled with twists and turns that keep you turning the pages until the end. It is a fast paced read, that you can read as a stand alone, but if you have read the Delta Crossroads Trilogy, you will want to read all of this series also. This is a great author that keeps getting better with each book.

Love reading Cage Foster

Reviewed in the United States on March 13, 2015

Cage Foster is a favorite character of mine and I enjoy Green's novellas--short crime suspense reads. One thing about a novella is they are short and you can read a complete tale in one sitting, which lends itself to immediate gratification rather than stretching the suspense for several days.

Green has a unique and refreshing writing style. Her stories incorporate a lot of desperation to resolve the crimes, but the story is never rushed and flows smoothly to a satisfactory conclusion.

This book is a great book to read. If you read Stacy Greens trilogy with Cage Foster as one of the main characters, then you will have no problems following Living Victim. it made me feel as if I was just following up on Cage and his career and life.

I really liked this book as it was a very fast read and definitely hard to put down. It reads a lot like a James Patterson book. Characters are well developed and authentic. It's apparent that the author does her research, as well.
I would recommend this book to fans of James Patterson, Sandra Brown, Willow Rose, just to name a few. I love a good mystery and this was one of them!
