“I enjoyed this idea of a crime thriller novel, it had everything that I was hoping for and enjoyed the overall suspenseful feel to this book. It had a great overall story going on and thought the atmosphere worked perfectly. Carolyn Arnold has a great writing style and I enjoyed the way characters were written perfectly.”

“I love Carolyn Arnold. I had never read a Madison Knight book before now but loved that it was easy to read as a standalone book. It was a page turner and I finished it in just two sittings. I highly suggest reading this book!”

“Madison’s ready to say I do to Troy, when the cops came.  A story of how, her as a Detective works. Wanting to know the outcome will have you turning pages. A good series and with each new book I enjoy reading and recommend.”

“Lucky number 13. About time I discovered this series. An engaging and convoluted murder mystery. It kept me turning the pages. Obviously, I have 12 books to read now. This is easily read as a standalone, but since I enjoyed getting to know Detective Madison Knight I want to read more of her adventures.”

“This talented author has written a page turner.  Realistic characters keep the story moving quickly.  Secrets and red herrings kept me guessing. Will Madison solve the mystery? Will love win out-in the end? Is he guilty? Read and discover the answers.”

“Murder at the Lake is a rollercoaster of emotions! A crime that clouded Troy’s past has made a come back to his present life in the worst possible way and time. He is being framed for crimes he did not commit, he is angry and afraid for what might happen to his beloved Madison, and he has to fight against a whole Police Station unwilling to investigate his case. And investigate Madison will, she’ll race against the clock so proof against the killer can be found in order to release Troy from jail. The story is well-written, engaging from the beginning, and full of action.”

“Murder At The Lake is another excellent story from Carolyn Arnold, an author who can always be relied on to write a gripping and unputdownable thriller.  Carolyn has such an easy way of writing that it’s impossible to stop reading and with the intrigue, suspense and twists and turns, not to mention the highly dramatic conclusion, it’s a novel that keeps grabbing you and won’t let go, and that I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending.”

“I have come to regard Carolyn Arnold as one of my favorite authors, and this latest book is exactly why I do.  As always, Carolyn has woven a tale with mystery, action, family/friends, and a great ending.  While this is part of a series, it is completely able to be read as a standalone.  Captivating read from start to finish.”

“It was hard to put this book down, but I kept finding it necessary just to catch the breath I found I was holding. It was riveting from the start! Madison was a force. She couldn’t be stopped and was constantly hitting roadblocks in her quest to find something to free Troy. I found myself on the edge of my seat numerous times. If you love murder suspense, this is the book for you.”

“Another great Detective Madison Knight book that starts out with a bang. Madison is in her wedding dress ready to be married when her fiancé is arrested. Grabbed me from the start and I couldn’t put it down.”

“Arnold really threw me for a loop with this book because I was questioning myself on what I had missed that could have shown Troy as guilty. I was pulling out old enemies and wondering how it was all going to fit. And in her true fashion to giving us the best crime procedurals out there, Arnold pulled it together and had me gasping at what I’d overlooked. Excited to see where this series goes next!.”

“As a new reader of the Madison Knight mysteries, I wish to commend the author for writing so well that I was able to jump into the series at book 13 without any issues! The author focuses fully on this tale rather than past thoughts or tales of the characters except for the rare inference. Ensuring I was fully immersed in Madison and Troy’s drama. This book seemed to speed by! Ms. Arnold has a new fan, I will be going back to read book one Ties that Bind.”
