In "A Deadly Wilderness," Kelly Irvin crafts a gripping romantic suspense that keeps you at the edge of your seat from the first page to the last. Filled with memorable characters, compelling twists, and heartfelt romance, this novel is a triumph in its genre.
​
Our protagonist, Susana Martinez-Acosta, is a counselor thrust into the chilling realm of a murder investigation through a frantic anonymous crisis center hot-line call. Dealing with her own struggles following her husband's tragic death, she must now navigate a world of murder, mystery, and menacing detectives. The story depicts Susana’s remarkable strength and resilience in an environment where danger is always lurking.
On the other side of the narrative, we have homicide detective Ray Johnson. After a simple wilderness hike turns deadly, Ray is determined to solve the murder of a prominent citizen's son. The character of Ray Johnson is not just a conventional detective. He is a complex character with emotional depth, grappling with high-stakes murder investigations while trying to win over the woman he is falling for.

As the pair delve deeper into the mystery, they plunge from the highest echelons of San Antonio's wealthy society to its darkest corners. The narrative expertly explores the devastating consequences of unchecked greed, painting a haunting picture of a world where one’s insatiable lust for material wealth can drive a deadly wedge among family members.

"A Deadly Wilderness" is not just a thrilling mystery; it is also a poignant romance. The blossoming love between Susana and Ray adds a warm counterpoint to the chilling suspense, weaving a rich tapestry of emotions. Irvin handles both aspects of the narrative with a deft hand, never allowing one to overshadow the other.
​
In conclusion, "A Deadly Wilderness" is a masterful blend of mystery, romance, and social commentary. It offers a riveting exploration of the depths to which humans can sink in their quest for material wealth and the transformative power of love. This is a book that will stay with you long after you turn the last page.
