REVENGE.Montreal ghostwriter Megan Scott falls under police suspicion when her husband and a female companion are found murdered. In what a Québec detective calls a crime of passion, startling evidence surfaces to also … evidence surfaces to also implicate Michael Elliott, a young investigative reporter who’d rather rub elbows with scumbags than live the posh lifestyle he inherited.

A new author for me but I loved every in this series! A must read
Tedious – too much “overthinking – repetitive
Really enjoying the series.
I enJOYed this free book so much, that I’ve parted with $$ to purchase the next in the series. This is the highest compliment I can pay. Do I recommend this series? My answer is an unqualified, “emphatically yes!”. Julie
Good read, enjoyed it.
love a mystery that is a good nighttime read not gory
Somewhat bland and unrealistic
Very interesting. An unusual premise with interesting characters. Held my interest throughout.
This book really has a fast pace and it keeps you reading once you start! Just love the characters and would read other books by this author.
I stopped reading this book because I lost interest.
It was a fast good read…not too memorable. Some good twists of plot. Not too much of a thinker and suspenseful page turner.
predictable and trite…couldn’t finish it.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It was hard to put down.
Very interesting who did it
Characters are one-sided dimensional, almost comically predictable. Plotting is contrived and improbable.
It was good, not the real page turner I was hoping for.
Book was good GLAD to have the opportunity to read thanks
This book would have been great, except it took way to long to finish! The idea was exceptional, but it took to long to tie it all together. And then the ending just wasn’t what it should have been. I mean Megan found out her husband had multiple affairs, then just jumps right back into a relationship? And the killer wasn’t very believable either.
Good plot
Story kept me guessing.
