Summary: A smoothly written novel that grips the reader's attention
Review: After her husband Amos McCrite dies in a hunting accident, Carrie decides to realize their mutual dream of retiring to a home in the Ozark mountains. There she hopes to prove herself to be a capable woman who can take care of her self. Carrie meets her new neighbor JoAnne Harrington -- a very independently minded woman in her own right. When a stone quarry threatens to turn part of the valley into little more than heaps of gravel, the two women and their neighbors band together to prevent it. That's when someone murders JoAnne. Carrie feels compelled to uncover and bring to justice whoever is responsible. That's when another of her new neighbors, retired Kansas City Police Major Henry King, warns her that she, and not JoAnne, might have been the killer's real target. And that's when Carrie will find out in earnest whether or not she's truly a capable woman who can survive. A Valley To Die For is a smoothly written novel that grips the reader's attention from first page to last, and documents Radine Trees Nehring as a mystery writer whose imagination and talent will win her a large and dedicated readership.
