This was pretty good. Definitely different from your regular who-done-it. It was unpredictable. Not at all what I expected in the end.
A good mystery to cozy up with and a non-pro sleuth who gets answers. Enjoyed the characters.
Well written. The only fault was all the gun references.
Excellent read!
A book you will want to read straight through. The plotting is ageil the characters well fleshed out. Throughly lovely book to curl up with on a long afternoon.
It was an okay read, but I found the story strange.
I really enjoyed this book. The characters were realistic. I enjoyed the setting,as I am from that part of the country. I would recommend like book to anyone who enjoys an easy, but entertaining read. I am looking forward to the next book by this author.
Clean, easy read,
Enough mystery to be interesting. Easy read, light mystery. A nice story. Leans towards christian writer for those who might be offended. I enjoyed.
I enjoyed it very much. It kept me guessing.
Ok not in my favorites
A most enjoyable read.
First one by this author! Loved it
not too bad but I wouldn’t recommend it
Easy enjoyable read with a few twist and turns to keep it interesting
Although the plot was interesting and the characters were likable, the book completely lacked suspense. It’s definitely not a page turner. I don’t regret reading it (since the book was free), but I probably won’t read another one in this series.
Hard to stay interested in this book. Didn’t move fast enough and unnecessary characters to cloud the story.
An enjoyable book with unexpected twists.
Very good story with strong characters. It’s a series, so story doesn’t conclude with this book. Not too fond of that.
Compelling, real, and suspenseful. Love the characters. Definitely, an unsuspected twist kept me guessing.
