A wonderful mystery. It took me a bit to get involved in it but when I did I enjoyed it very much. Actually, the first book I've read by this author, but I'll be reading more.
This was my first time reading Sandra Brown and I was very impressed. Fat Tuesday is a great book, had a hard time putting it down.
WONDERFUL .A MUST LISTEN TO......WONDERFUL.....I really loved this selection.......
To be honest, I didn't read/listen to this book. I got a lot of books via Freecycle (if you haven't checked it out, do so, it's a wonderful community) and am passing on the ones that I'm not interested in. It's had wonderful reviews, but it's just not my style.
