I’ve never read any books by this author but I hope to read more I really enjoyed it
I enjoyed the plot, but I thought that the development of the main characters sometimes got in the way of the story line instead of enhancing it. I liked it enough to see read the next story in the series.
Kept you riveted until the final reveal.
Kept you on the edge of your seat with all the twists and turns.
Reading this novel was like putting together a 500 piece jig saw puzzle. The last 250 pages were difficult to put down. Little pointed to the killer yet there were several characters introduced who might have had motive to commit the intertwined, but somewhat unrelated crimes.
Page turner!
