Usually the woods are friendly. But not when you are stuck in the cellar in the woods. Christa Heckertt did not expect to interrupt an intruder trying to steal parts from the computers her Iowa City fourth-grade class won in the mayor's competition. And the last thing Officer Kirk Reynolds wanted was to be called from a drug surveillance to investigate an attempted burglary at Buckingham Elementary School. But the burglary throws them together-Kirk who wants enough evidence to convict a drug dealer who sells to kids and Christa who wants to keep her students safe and get control of her life again. The thieves who want the newly won computers will stop at nothing. They'll kidnap, run cars off the road, steal, and threaten worse. Christa and Kirk's attraction to each other is growing, but they are too stubborn to admit it. Will it get in the way as they try to decipher an encoded file and learn what the bad guys want and why it's worth killing to get it? On Halloween eve, Christa is kidnapped by a drug dealer who wants to use her as leverage to get what he wants. Will she escape the abandoned cellar in the woods in time to work with Kirk to keep the dealer from making that delivery and find out who his partners are? Can she and Kirk trust the right people -- and each other?

Searching for Secrets Author Preferred Edition Elaine L Orr Elaine Orr Books

The author mentions in the preface that she was hesitant to revise a previously published book, but in this case she thought she could improve it. We can only be grateful that she did. I'm not sure if I can articulate why I liked it so much, I just did. It's not that the book has no weaknesses, it does. The protagonist does dumb things & doesn't tell anyone, she sails through concussions & other serious injury that would lay me up for weeks. But the books strengths totally outweigh its weaknesses. There is a sweetness and an underlying comforting atmosphere that assures me the sun will come up tomorrow. But even that's not it. See, I said I didn't think I could articulate why I liked this book so much, I just do. I liked the characters, the plot, the local, even the ending. I was left with an inner sense of calm and well-being. Even though the cop was unrealistic in his expectations of his ability to rid Iowa of drugs and evil, I'd like to have someone like him on patrol in my community. I'd like my kids to have a teacher like Christa.

I've loved everything I've read by Elaine Orr so far, & fortunately I've still got a couple more on her backlist to look forward to. I'm sure that at least part of that is due to her keeping at the story until it meets her own high standards. Even if it's been previously published. 5 stars

Searching for Secrets Author Preferred Edition Elaine L Orr Elaine Orr Books Reviews


I enjoyed this book by Elaine Orr. It was a quick read that kept my interest. I liked how the characters interacted with each other. Recommend this one.
Lots of action here. Never a dull moment. Loved the characters. As usual, this author provides us with a very strong woman. And a man who doesn't put up with much from her. Explosive interaction, but a nice romance, too. Plus several surprises in the ending.
The story was written well but I just couldn't like it. Mostly that was simply because the two main characters were kind of irritating to me. For those readers looking for an easy entertainment, this might suit them.
Ms. Orr seems to have revised this story in a positive way and even though I never read the first version, this one is very well done. There is enough romance between the main characters, Christa and Kirk, to let you know their feeling about each other but not so much that it detracts from the plot. Lots of suspense and intrigue to hold your interest until the surprise at the end! I look forward to reading more of this author's books!
I love this author and her other series, Highly Recomended!
A fun little romantic mystery. At times both main characters seem a little fickle but probably because I'm old. Quite a complicated plot.
