About this ebook
When I was eight, I saved a boy from getting snakebit. Him and me was the best of friends after that, right up 'til high school hit and we was both forced to move on.
Years later, Riley Treadwell walked back into my life, all growed up, and with him come a monster-sized problem. Seemed trouble was brewing in Lake Burton, trouble big and mean enough to take out docks and scare the life outta anybody what seen it.
Then there was the toxic waste somebody dumped into the local waterways. Nobody was talking, but somebody sure was guilty, and I aimed to find out who.
Then things heated up and me and Riley found ourselves neck deep in trouble on a whole new level. This time, though, I weren't sure if I could save him from the monsters, and the humans, gunning for us both.

I recommend the audio version.This book was a little out of my usual genre, as I don't normally read Paranormal fiction. Although, to be honest, this was only mildly paranormal - most of the story centred around Sunny, a private investigator, and Riley Treadwell, her longtime school-friend and would-be-lover. It very much reminded me of Janet Evanovich's books, although the who-done-it element is not quite as strong.Sunny, the Sunshine Walkingstick of the title, has a sad history - her mother killed her father and is now in jail, and her young son was taken by pooka (see below for explanation). She seems to have moved on from this awful past and is now a frequent member of her uncle's household and making a new life for herself - will it be with Riley Treadwell?I liked that the investigation revolved around the topical issue of pollution of the nearby lake by persons unknown and I enjoyed the Appalachian accent (very broad American south) from the narrator, Rebecca Winder. As the book itself is written in this accent, I think I would have struggled to read it myself, given my own Queen's English!It was also refreshing to read a novel where the female lead didn't jump straight into bed with the sexy male.It's a short novel, just 178 pages in paperback, and I would have been happy for it to have been longer, but I didn't feel the characters suffered from the lack of length and I'd certainly listen to (if not read) subsequent books in the series.Pooka: A mythical creature of Irish folklore. There are numerous variations of it in various cultures and traditions. It can be "good" or "bad," depending on the myth. According to various myths, a pooka can be a shape-shifter. Some of the shapes include appearing as a horse, goat, or rabbit."I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request, and have voluntarily left this review."
