Linda S. (Linda) reviewed The Detective's Secret (The Detective?s Daughter) on + 770 more book reviews
Once again, I chose a book that's part of a series I haven't read. I will say, that though there are references to the first book, THE DETECTIVE'S DAUGHTER, this one still works well as a stand-alone.
Stella Darnell was the detective's daughter and now she's solving cases of her own. A man has died beneath the wheels of a train, Along with her friend, Jack Harmon, she suspects that it was murder and not an accident or suicide. Their investigating leads to an unsolved case 20 years old ... and someone is watching and is not happy.
This was an easy read. Not breathtakingly suspenseful, but still an enjoyable read. I would like to go back and read the first in the series to get more of a handle on who Stella and Jack really are and how their relationship came to be. And I'd really like to know what kind of relationship Stella had with her father.
