Take it to the Limit Book Four: The Stillness of Murder

By Linda Opdyke

The Stillness of Murder - a Take it to the Limit series thriller

It begins on a cliff in Tennessee. Gunman D.J. Burnett intends to end two lives with one shove-Ethan and Mickey Jenks, husband-and-wife Nashville private investigators. Ethan fights back, saving Mickey from a deadly fall. But the cliffside struggle is only the beginning.

What begins as a hunt for answers in a legendary bar in the backwoods town of Gentry, Kentucky, spirals into a deadly trap of lies, threats, and family secrets buried for decades. Mickey and Ethan, along with Bowen, Tanner, Logan, and Tony, find themselves unraveling a web spun by bar owner Boomer Hutchins and the Burnett family-a clan as ruthless as they are unpredictable. At the center is Hannah Burnett, a manipulative matriarch who thrives on cruelty and control, and whose reach extends deeper than any of them could have imagined.

As Mickey and Ethan infiltrate the notorious White Dog Bar and the Burnetts' world, every move places her under closer watch. Fires erupt. Threats escalate. And a single misstep could tip the balance between uncovering the truth and paying the ultimate price.

With Bowen, Tanner, Logan, and Tony at their side, Ethan and Mickey must navigate ambushes, betrayals, and a family empire built on violence. From the edge of a cliff to a snake-guarded safe, the investigation turns into a fight for survival-and a battle against a legacy of hate.

When the final move comes, survival hinges on trust, precision-and whether Mickey can hold her ground when the past and present collide in one explosive reckoning.
