Investigative reporter Lucy Resnick has bought the farm – that is her grandparent’s farm outside the small town of Buttercup, Texas. However, just days after learning that the previous owner, Nettie Kocurek, retained the mineral rights in the sale and intends to drill for oil, Nettie is stabbed. With the police focusing on the outsider – Lucy – she has to act find to find the real killer.

This is a fun series debut filled with great characters and a fun small town that I really grew to love. The plot did blog down a little in the second quarter, but it soon started back up with plenty of twists and surprises to keep me confused until the end.

NOTE: I was sent an ARC of this book in exchange for my honest review.

A bit of an odd film. It's not as cool, edgy or shocking as it thinks it is. A small town called Salem goes all Purge crazy after hackers release everyone's phone and intertnet data. The first half is pretty slow but once the town is in meltdown it becomes more interesting. A bit of social commentary on how people behave and act online in comparison to real life underlies the film. Didn't quite reach the high levels in getting it across to make it particularly memorable. You might like it if you liked the Purge but it's not as good as the first Purge film.
