Secrets in Small Towns (Small Town Series, Book 3) Kindle Edition

4.3 4.3 out of 5 stars 6 ratings

The ball starts rolling when Sue-Ann McKeown, editor of The Pine Oak Courier, finds a zonked-out teenager in her woods. When it turns out that he has escaped from a juvenile detention center long rumored to abuse its charges, Sue-Ann senses that she's on a new case. But the kid goes missing, and Sue-Ann has to find him--especially given that Sgt. Joe Bickley of the local sheriff's office is threatening to "out" Sue-Ann and her girlfriend unless she produces the boy. Then a Courier reporter who is investigating the juvenile center is nearly killed, and Sue-Ann realizes she has a lot more to worry about than putting out a newspaper. This is the third and most exciting novel in the Small Town Series.

About the Author

Golden Crown Finalist Iza Moreau was born and raised in New Mexico, where she was introduced to Arabian horses and to the art of riding them. After a stint in journalism school, she roamed the country for a couple of years before settling down in one of the Southern states, where she has a small farm with a couple of horses. She counts Sarah Waters, Maggie Estep, and the Bronte sisters-Acton, Currer, and Ellis-among her literary influences. Secrets in Small Towns is the third in the series of Small Town novels featuring Sue-Ann McKeown and her friends in Pine Oak, Florida. The first novel in the series, The News in Small Towns, was a top-5 finalist in the 2013 Next Generation Indie Book Awards in both Mystery and Regional Fiction. It and its popular sequel, Madness in Small Towns, are available in print and as e-books. Although Secrets in Small Towns completes the three-novel sequence, there is a series of Small Town short stories featuring the same characters entitled Mysteries in Small Towns. You can reach Iza at iza@blackbayfarm.com.

Reviewed in the United States on January 24, 2015
I was happy to read Secrets in Small Towns and follow more adventures of Sue-Ann. The characters that were developed in the first two books of the series continued to entertain in Secrets. However, one emerged in a different light as this story ended. I've read all three of the Small Town Series and hope that Iza will eventually take us back to Pine Oak for more small-town Florida tales.

I guess I’ve already said, “I love this trilogy!” This may be my favorite of he 3. No place has more secrets than a small North Florida town! Even though Sue-Ann McKeown comes from Pine Oak, she doesn’t know all there is to know about the history of The Courier, the Hardy Juvenile Detention facility or why a Sheriff’s deputy won’t pursue a suspect of assault. In fact, he seemed more set on stalking Sue-Ann! Secrets of every level- community, institutional, military, personal,- all weave a mystery like only Iza can do. Sue-Ann’s journalistic team delivers all the answers through their superb detective and writing skills. All but one, that is, which Sue-Ann must reveal for herself!
I particularly like the way Iza titles each chapter. It makes it easier for me to find specific
scenes in the book that I wish to reference or re-read.
