Good, not great. I finished it.
Mystery OK…ongoing backstory on Kate Redmond more interesting.
Easy to read with interesting plot However, I was able to solve most of the mystery before the ending
couldn’t put it down
Love this series with Kate
I previously read other books in the series but this is, evidently, the first and is my least favorite. The main character is too naive and the dead sister situation is rather improbable. In fact, very few likable characters in this novel. Doubt I would have read any more books by this author if this was the first I’d read.
Just OK. Not as mysterious or exciting as I would have hoped. It felt scripted, you could see ahead to the next move and pretty much figure it out early on.
Kept me on the edge of my seat……really liked it!
