Summary

Jealousy is evil。 Greed is deadly。

When a young man is found hanging inside a barn, it seems like an open-and-shut suicide。 But the boy in question is none other than Bryce Mowery, son and only heir of the richest family in Savannah, and Bryce’s father is claiming foul play。 Much to her chagrin, Detective Charli Cross is sent to investigate and appease the farm and real estate magnate。

But soon, it’s no longer a question of if Bryce was killed, but by who。 The Mowerys have made plenty of enemies in town, but why would anyone want to kill the happy-go-lucky playboy? As Charli and her partner Matthew delve deeper into the cutthroat world of land development, the killer is waiting。 Not only does he like to play games, but he’s covering his tracks 。 。 。 and he’s developed a taste for murder。

Fast-paced and gripping, Dark Greed is the second book in the Charli Cross series from bestselling author Mary Stone—guaranteed to make you reconsider keeping your friends close and your enemies closer。

GBI agent, Preston Powell, is in town for a few weeks on a case and asks Charli to dinner。Dark Greed is well written and keeps you interested until the end。 It is a standalone book; however, I suggest you read the first one, Dark Purpose to get a good feel for Charli Cross and her partner Matthew。 。。。more

Another great book in this new series。 Charlie & Matthew make a great detective team, solving complicated cases。 This case involved a few wealthy building contractors wanting to have it all by killing off the competition。 A roller coaster ride til the end!

Greed, indeed, with a little narcissism and psychopathy thrown in for good measure。 I really enjoyed this entry in the Charli Cross series。 The culprits were truly awful people with no sympathy or remorse for anyone but themselves。 Stone and Berdel did a great job writing those parts so that the reader could feel the fury and disgust that Charli and Mathew were feeling as they interacted with them。I love the characters in this series。 Charli and Mathew are such a good pairing。 Their investigatin Greed, indeed, with a little narcissism and psychopathy thrown in for good measure。 I really enjoyed this entry in the Charli Cross series。 The culprits were truly awful people with no sympathy or remorse for anyone but themselves。 Stone and Berdel did a great job writing those parts so that the reader could feel the fury and disgust that Charli and Mathew were feeling as they interacted with them。I love the characters in this series。 Charli and Mathew are such a good pairing。 Their investigating styles are complementary and they lend strength to each other’s weaknesses。 That said, I am excited to see Preston Powell again in this book and am cautiously optimistic that something will come of this development。 。。。more

In Dark Greed Mary Stone and Donna Berdel follow Savannah PD detective Charli and her partner Matthew as they take on another case involving murder, money and greed。 Nothing is as it seems! Many dead ends! Who is lurking in the background? An excellent read。 Waiting for the next one。 Highly recommend。

I am loving Charli and Matthew。 These new characters from Mary Stone and Donna Berdel are pretty awesome。  Strict, by the book Charli plays well with by his gut Matthew and they know how to rock an investigation。  Not quite as grisly as the first in this series, it was still a thrill ride to the end。 I quite like this series!

Another GREAT book from this author !!! Detective Charli Cross is called in to find out what is going on in a "HIGH PROFILE" suicide! The ME said it was suicide, but the father and friends all say no way。 It is left up to Charli to find out。 Charli's partner is trying to see his daughter。 There are so many twist in finding the truth。 I recommend the book and the series。 Another GREAT book from this author !!!
