In The Boy Who Cried Bear, New York Times bestselling author Kelley Armstrong keeps readers on the edge of their seats while detective Casey Duncan tries to locate the threat before it’s too late. . .
Haven’s Rock is a well-hidden town surrounded by forest. And it’s supposed to be, being that it’s a refuge for those who need to disappear. Detective Casey Duncan and her husband, Sheriff Eric Dalton already feel at home in their new town, which reminds them of where they first met in Rockton. And while they know how to navigate the woods and its various dangers, other residents don’t. Which is why people aren't allowed to wander off alone.
When Max, the town’s youngest resident—taught to track animals by Eric—fears a bear is stalking a hiking party, alarms are raised. Even stranger, the ten-year-old swears the bear had human eyes. Casey and Eric know the dangers a bear can present, so they’re taking it seriously. But odd occurrences are happening all around them, and when a dead body turns up, they’re not sure what they’re up against.
MY REVIEW:
The Boy Who Cried Bear by Kelley ArmstrongMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
The narrator for this audiobook had a nice voice and was pleasant to listen to.
It is a mystery set in Canada. Haven's Rock is a town that is hidden for people who need to hide or start over a new life. It is surrounded by a forest and people are asked to not go into the forest or at least not go alone.
10 year old Max said he saw a bear but then said it was a bear with a man's eyes. Then he goes missing. While on the hunt to look for him we find out things about Max's family and why they came to Haven''s Rock. I didn't read the first book and I don't feel like I missed to much except for maybe character development.
Thanks to NetGalley and Macmiillan Audio for the chance to review.

Kelley Armstrong has been telling stories since before she could write. Her earliest written efforts were disastrous. If asked for a story about girls and dolls, hers would invariably feature undead girls and evil dolls, much to her teachers' dismay. All efforts to make her produce "normal" stories failed.
Today, she continues to spin tales of ghosts and demons and werewolves, while safely locked away in her basement writing dungeon. She's the author of the NYT-bestselling "Women of the Otherworld" paranormal suspense series and "Darkest Powers" young adult urban fantasy trilogy, as well as the Nadia Stafford crime series. Armstrong lives in southwestern Ontario with her husband, kids and far too many pets.
