J. A. Jance is an excellent mystery writer. Her books are favorites.
This is another jance worth waiting for. I have missed Sheriff Brady and found this book just as entertaining as her other books.
I loved it. Reminded me of a Criminal Minds episode. Can’t wait to read more by this author.
I enjoyed this book more than the last few of this series. Not sure it can be enjoyed as much by someone just starting the series. I enjoyed it a lot tho and read it very quickly
Jance has strong female characters but she also has male characters who can stand up to them. These are very realistic people with very realistic problems who love and care for each other and try to work things out. She always has good mystery in each of her books and I look forward to each new one.
Love Joanna Brady and the other characters. Moves at a good pace. Keeps you guessing to the very end.
Have read all of the Joanna Brady books. Highly enjoyable
Like all of her books, the characters are real, the story moves right along, and the setting becomes an integral part of the plot. I’ve read her since her first book and can’t wait for the next!!
I have read most of J.A. Janice’s books.
Another good book in the Joanna Brady series. Sort of disappointed in the ending,but it sewed things up nicely.

Always a good read, Janice makes the Sheriff feel like a real person with real life problems.
Great one of my favorite authors
Janice is a wonderful writer who gets you involved from page one. Believable character so and current si tustions plus a few twists and turns.
This is another great J A Jance book. She really creates characters and plots that will keep you reading till the end of the book. Forget housework, homework, or any work as you will be glued to this book to the end. I am very much impressed that she used pit bulls in this book. Pit bulls have gotten such a bad rap that most people do not know that they are kind, gentle dogs that do a lot of good in service to humans.
Creepy
Well it’s Jance, one of my favorites. and since I live right here in Cochise county, I enjoy her books. The Joanna Brady saga continues, if you’ve read her other books about Sheriff Brady, this one is a must!
I am a fan forever. Can’t wait for the next book, all of them are books that are page turners. Can hardly put them down. The author never fails to get my attention. Please keep them coming.
Loved this one
Loved it as I have all of Jances books. She never disappoints.
Love all of hers.
