When Jerod Garfield finds a body in his pond, the buzz quickly spreads throughout Bear Creek. Though Tempe is retired from the police force, she is curious who it is and why they ended up there. That curiosity, however, might just get her killed.
In the final book of Meredith's Tempe Crabtree series, Tempe finds herself in the middle of a mystery. Despite her husband's protests, she can't help but find out all she can about the victim's past and who might have wanted them dead, especially if it's possible one of the two handsome suitors wooing her friend, Miqui Sherwood, might be involved.
Tempe has always depended upon her good friend, Nick Two John, to guide her as she solves mysteries, but as his health deteriorates, she wonders how long she will be graced with his friendship and counsel.
I've been a fan of Meredith's Tempe Crabtree series since I read Judgment Fire back in 2007. With this final installment, Meredith continues to bring readers a mystery filled with twists and turns and a list of plausible suspects, while ramping up suspense along the way. The more Tempe investigates, the more determined a killer is to stop her. Meredith has made it her trademark to blend her character's personal lives and relationships into the unfolding mystery. In A Final Farewell, Tempe and her husband Hutch, along with their friends Miqui, Claudia, and Nick Two John, all face some sort of change in their lives.
While always keeping the series fresh with new ideas and some new characters, family, faith, and mysticism has run through this series in every book I've read. I am sad to see the Tempe Crabtree series end, but I feel Meredith left her beloved characters in the right place.
If you enjoy engaging, well-written mysteries set in a small community, then A Final Farewell and the other books in the Tempe Crabtree series are for you.
