The Man From Spirit Creek by Barbara Kyle
Book starts with praise for authors works.
iv is in disguise and Chris her sister are on their way to Canada so she can pose as a paralegal and find out the truth.
Everything she hears from the locals tell her Wainwright is the bad man, putting nails on the roads the trucks travel on.
Her family company is in energy and they want some land in the area. When others go to her hotel room and almost torch it it's Wainwright that saves them and finds lodging for them.
Falcon corp also has an acting president, Mickey who she plans to marry...
So many events take place, fast paced action and deaths occur and nobody knows who really has been doing the bad deeds. She does learn in time who the culprit is and she goes to court, not only paying for Tom's defense but testifying who really killed Dale.
So many have had to die and all she wants is peace and quiet and her love...
Enjoyed this book and the plot, loved especially the talk about the Northern Lights which I've yet to see for myself.
Love learning about spoiled gas and other things in that field, so informative.
Can't wait to read more from this author.
Received this review copy from BookSirens and this is my honest opinion.

Liv, is 1/3 of the Falcon Dream Team, the dynamic trio who heads up the oil and gas firm. She creates a new identity, packs up her younger sister, and heads to Spirit Creek to get close to the mysterious and well-hated man, Tom Wainscott, the saboteur who stands between her firm being able to pump sour gas on the land that Falcon desperately want. She wants to find pump him for information to benefit her company, but the more she learns, the more she finds herself conflicted. On her quest, she finds herself entangled in a web of threats, danger, deceit, corruption, and a struggle with right and wrong as she inches closer to this Man from Spirit Creek.

This was a wonderful read-full of twists, suspense, mystery and a hint of romance. I loved the added details on the history of how the sour gas had wreaked havoc on the families and how deeply committed Tom was to saving the land, that held fond memories and promise. The setting was so vividly depicted I could clearly visualize it in my mind. I really enjoyed the story of the battle between the energy company and Tom, along with the balance of likable/unlikable characters; each of them had added depth in their stories, even the secondary characters.

A wonderful and captivating read! I would love to see this come to life on the big screen.
