Angels Fall

by Nora Roberts

The sole survivor of a brutal crime, Reece Gilmore is on the run, desperately fighting the panic attacks and the nightmares that haunt her. She doesn't intend to stay in the sleepy town of Angel's Fist one second longer than she needs to, despite its friendly - if curious - inhabitants, and the irresistible attraction of local writer Brody.

However, on a hike into the mountains she witnesses a couple having a vicious argument that culminates in murder. Faced with a lack of evidence, the authorities in Angel's Fist find it hard to believe Reece's story. But when a series of menacing events prove that someone wants her out of the way, Reece must put her trust in Brody - the one person who does believe her - to find the murderer before it's too late.

Reece Gilmour is running from her past and her nightmares and finds herself in the small town of Angel's Fist. There she finds a job and a hope of a future. A mutual attraction starts with Brody, a local writer. Reece, however, witnesses a murder for which there is no evidence or body. She starts to doubt her own sanity when strange things start happening.

A very readable Nora Roberts book, I quite enjoyed it and was guessing up to nearly the end as to who was the murderer.

This is only the second NR I’ve read, and it came recommended to me. Great recommendation! I really enjoyed this. Reece and Brody’s chemistry was realistic, as well as the portrayal of small-town life and Reece’s own reactions to what happened to her. I guessed who the bad guy was shortly before the characters did, but it was a satisfactory ending. I liked it enough that I’m starting another NR right away, though I usually don’t read books by one author in a row.
