About the book:
They both wanted quieter, safer lives.
But crime never sleeps . . .
and killers keep killing.
After years as a Chicago homicide detective, Lisa Grant is ready for the kinder, gentler life of a small-town police chief. But the discovery of a human skeleton by a construction crew at the edge of town taxes department resources. Enter ex-Navy SEAL Mac McGregor, the detective sent by the county to assist on the case. As they work to solve the mystery behind the unmarked grave, danger begins to shadow them. Someone doesn't want this dead person telling any tales--and will stop at nothing to make certain a life-shattering secret stays buried.

My thoughts:
I've yet to be disappointed with Irene Hannon's suspense books (and I've read all 10, counting this one), so I was hoping this would be a good read...and it was! Buried Secrets kicks off her new series, Men of Valor, and it held my attention even when I had sporadic reading time.
I loved the characters and how dedicated Lisa and Mac were to discovering the killer and getting justice. Even though it was a cold case that happened over 20 years ago, they were tenacious and that was great. Another added bonus that I loved -- Mitch from Deadly Pursuit (Guardians of Justice #2) made several appearances in Buried Secrets! I loved that book, so getting to see what was happening with him now was great.
All in all, a very good read and I definitely recommend it to fans of the genre. It's great and I can't wait to continue the series with book two, which is about Mac's brother, Lance.

Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. ~ Philippians 4:8
