Series: A Lovers in Crime Mystery (Book 4)
Homicide Detective Cameron Gates learned long ago that there is no such thing as a typical murder case. Each mystery is special in its own right—especially for the family of the victim.The homicide of a successful executive, husband, and father seems open and shut when the murder weapon is found in his estranged son-in-law’s possession. The circumstantial evidence is so damning that when her step-son, J.J. Thornton, agrees to act as the defendant’s public defender, he assumes his first murder case will be a loss. Only the report of a missing husband proves that this case is not as open and shut as it seems. Strap on your seat belts for a wild ride in this mystery rooted in decades of deception that sprouts into murder.Disclaimer: I received a copy from the author free for the book tour though IReadBookTours and for an honest review

The Roots of Murder is better then I
expected. Though Lauren books are done well and gripping at every
turn, there is not surprised that I loved it. It was amazing and so
had me guessing. You would not believe who killer turns out to be.
The plot is entertaining as it is
keeping you guessing until you make to end. Find out how Madison and
Heather find out they are half sisters? But who killed their father
and why? There seems to be another murder they did not seem to solve
that come up with Lindsay's death.
We see the family jump in and help with
the investigation of Cameron Gates case. We also see JJ Thornton join in
as well. We are reading JJ and his love Poppy getting ready for
their wedding as well. What ever is the case, this pulls in Joshua Thornton as it his friend from school. It deals with JJ and Murphy
friends as well when they find the victim is John Davis. Which is by
the way Heather's dad.
Elisabeth seems strange and clingy. Why
is she being the why she is. If you want to find out happens and why?
You will need to pick up the book to read. How Lauren Carr comes up
with these plots and still has more is beyond me. These stories are
so deep and emotional that they make you want even more. You can be
pulled in as if you are member and be heartfelt.
