Book Description:
Summer of Love & Murder
Joshua’s eldest son, Joshua “J.J.” Thornton Jr., has graduated at the top of his class from law school and returns home to spend the summer studying for the bar exam. However, to Joshua’s and Cameron’s shock and dismay, J.J. moves into the main house at Russell Ridge Farm, the largest dairy farm in the Ohio Valley, to rekindle a romance with Suellen Russell, a onetime leader of a rock group who’s twice his age. Quickly, they learn that she has been keeping a deep dark secret.
The move brings long-buried tensions between the father and son to the surface. But when a brutal killer strikes, the Lovers in Crime must set all differences aside to solve the crime before J.J. ends up in the cross hairs of a murderer.
Praise for Lauren Carr’s Mysteries:
“Lauren Carr could give Agatha Christie a run for her money!”
- Charlene Mabie-Gamble, Literary R&R
“As always, Lauren Carr brings an action-packed story that is almost impossible to put down. Her mystery plots have so many twists and turns that I didn’t know if I was coming or going. And the action just didn’t stop from the very beginning till the very end.” - Melina Mason, Melina’s Book Reviews

My review;
"Killer in the Band" by author Lauren Carr is a great crime mystery. The Thornton family is ready for changes in their lives but, maybe there are just too many changes. Joshua Thornton Jr. has come home to get ready to take the bar exam. They cannot believe he wants to restart up a romance with a woman twice his age. Joshua's father is not happy about this and lets his son know how he feels, leading to bad feelings. Joshua hates his stepmother who has married his father. But when there is a murder we will see if they come together as a family to solve a mystery. This is the third book in the "Lovers in Crime" mystery series. Will a family help each other even if they have real bad feelings between them? I give this book a 4/5. I was given this book for a review and all opinions are mine.
