Book Description, Modified from Goodreads:
Forensic pathologist Grace Reilly has seen her share of unusual deaths in rural Missouri. But when she begins to notice a curious pattern in autopsies of elderly residents whose demise appears to be natural, she takes her concerns to Sheriff Nate Cox. Other's are uncertain about the link Grace is seeing between the deaths and her suspicions of foul play, but she convinces Nate that her theory is credible. They join forces to investigate, and danger follows. Because exposing the truth could destroy several lives--including Grace's.


My Review:
Body of Evidence is a Christian romantic suspense novel. It's the third book in a series, but it works as a stand-alone novel. The main characters were engaging, complex people who reacted realistically to events. I cared about what happened to them. Grace noticed something unusual in the autopsy, linked several cases, and figured out how the murder was done while Nate interviewed suspects and followed up leads about the murderer's identity. Both had confidence in the other's abilities and skills. They admired each other's character as well as their looks. The suspense was created by the possibility that more older folks would die soon and the increasing threats toward Grace. There was no sex or bad language. Overall, I'd recommend this enjoyable, exciting novel.
