About the author
Christopher Greyson
57 books1,059 followersMy name is Christopher Greyson, and I am a storyteller.
Since I was a little boy, I have dreamt of what mystery was around the next corner, or what quest lay over the hill. If I couldn’t find an adventure, one usually found me, and now I weave those tales into my stories. I am blessed to have written over twenty novels.
My love for tales of mystery and adventure began with my grandfather, a decorated World War I hero. I will never forget being introduced to his friend, a WWI pilot who flew across the skies at the same time as the feared, legendary Red Baron. My love of reading and storytelling eventually led me to write and it’s the best job I’ve ever had.

Book number 10 of 10 - I read every book in the series and NONE were a disappointment. My hat’s off to author, Christopher Grayson, for providing such enjoyable reading, intertwining a great mystery, with humor, and a very light innocent love story!

Sweet, clever but too short
At 75% of the page count it's really short but Finn and Annie are getting closer. Although both have not only their physical difficulties to cope with but also emotional ones. Annie's ex-husband wants custody of their two children, whilst Finn's ex-fiance says that the baby she's having is his even though she was having an affair with his twin brother. Their next case is a case of a house struck by lightening. The problem is is that this is the second house struck by lightening owned by the claimant. Is this true? The evidence seems to agree until he finds a bit of wire by the side of the house. What will this tell them? Then there's the fact that he's asked her to be his date for a friend's wedding. Will she agree?

"A Great Story Of Choices And Fire Incident"
These stories of Finn and Annie are always short, investigative, and sweet. Each of these stories are captivating. Regardless of each of their handicaps, they make a great team as investigators, and they are also falling in love with each other. Loved it!

The Case of the Lightning Strikes Twice A Mini Mystery Series (The Adventures of Finn and Annie Book 10 [Kindle Unlimited] — Christopher Greyson (7 chapters) April 26, 2020
A home owner sends in a claim for lightning striking their home, which destroys it. It looks like a cut and dried case….but is it? Especially since the exact thing happened to the home owners years ago.
Finn and Annie share a special moment that leads to some thing more.
Great quick case that has a dash of loving….and it very G rated in that department too!
Can’t wait to read the next book in the series. These books can be read in less than an afternoon.
Five stars.

Finn and Annie and Lightning
Finn and Annie are asked to look into a house that burnt down after being struck by lightning. It seems this is the owner's 2nd house to face this. Was it an act of God? Or was it something else? Read it, and find out
You'll be glad you did!

Keeps getting better! I love the tie in with the most recent jack Stratton book. Finn and Annie’s relationship is developing in a realistic way, and I love watching them help hold each other up. Of course I’m interested to see what happens in the sub plots, but I guess I can be patient. The mystery was interesting, and I like how resourceful they are. I have been waiting for that ending and can’t wait to see what happens next! Book 11 can’t come soon enough!
