Dark Path by Melissa F. Miller

3.0

This is the first book in a series featuring retired forensic pathologist Bodhi King. Bodhi is called to island/retirement home in the Florida Keys to help look into a cluster of unexplained deaths. Bodhi King was a well-developed character and the story/mystery was solid. As a biologist, I found the details of Bodhi’s investigation interesting. As a person who grew up Catholic, I found the integration of Buddhism, Catholicsm, Santeria, and prosperity theology (practiced by the pastor of the church that ran the retirement community) interesting.

I thought this book was good. I will plan to read or listen to the next in the series, as I think that (assuming the mystery is good!) in which I will enjoy the development of the main character.

I listened to the audio version of the book. The narration was excellent.

Thank you to NetGalley and OrangeSky Audio for the advance copy of this audiobook.
