""Cults, government conspiracies, and UFOs""-throw in some mutilated cows and a dead man, and it's not your typical day in Anderson, Montana....Beneath the grim narrative, themes of community and the resilience of good people striving to do what's right resonate throughout the plot. Character development is exceptional, featuring both familiar faces and new characters. The novel maintains a fast pace, complemented by a touch of humor that enhances its believability and immersive quality. For fans of mysteries, crime stories, and rural settings, Savage Malice is a satisfying read and an excellent addition to the series. I recommend it without hesitation."" - Gaius Konstantine ""A tense, atmospheric, and unpredictable crime series. Karson delivers tightly wound mysteries where justice is never simple, and danger lurks beneath Montana's rugged beauty. Anderson may look idyllic on the surface, but Karson ensures we never forget just how dark it can be underneath."" - Prairie's Book World ""From it's opening lines, Karson crafts a tale that steadily builds intrigue and horror into what initially feels like ordinary mountain town life. Where's the beef? It's right there in Anderson, cooking with possibilities."" - Midwest Book Reviews ""Dark and Intriguing from cover-to-cover, Savage Malice is a standout entry among The Anderson Chronicles, a novel that raises provocative questions about beliefs, hysteria, and truth."" - Indies Today ""It's not that often that I find myself caring what happens to the characters in a story, but Savage Malice: A Sheriff Elliott Mystery by Kit Karson pulled me in such a way that I not only cared about what happened but who it happened to and why. Kit Karson knows how to slowly turn the screws, and there's plenty of that here."" - Demtria Head ""Karson serves up a polished and thoughtful mystery with a unique premise that hooked me and never let go."" - Jamie Michele ""As you start reading Savage Malice, you'll see how Kit Karson excels in the mystery thriller genre with an intricate plot of twisted killings, a missing character, and chaos that confounds Sheriff Elliot's team. I appreciate how the author captivates readers with the brutal mutilations occurring in a rural community, only to pose a contrasting effect of the dark themes with the humorous antics of the senior citizens. However, there is always an elusive killer lurking in the background, haunting the sheriff. Each book brings him closer to achieving justice for his parents' deaths. I highly recommend Savage Malice to anyone who enjoys suspenseful thrillers."" - Peggy Jo Wipf
