I really like Ali and this series of books. I must say I really missed her blogging in this book. Plus I missed her interacting more with her family.

The author has done a great job crafting a group of characters that make me care about them. Ali is a great investigator. I must say I like having her be an amateur rather than a policewoman, but she'll be great as that, too, if it happens in future books.

It was not as exciting as I would have liked. You knew where it would all end up, but the getting there was good and it won't drag her average down by much.

If the town were real, the diner is one I'd want to eat in if I came to town.

It keeps your attention throughout the entire book.

This is an enjoyable and fun book. It is as good as all the others by Jance.

Slow start but once it got going it was a real page turner. A worthwhile read if you are willing to slog through a plethora of interesting but not critical backstories. I really liked Jance's other two characters in her other books. She is the queen of building a story. With her Ali character she seems to be exploring new ground.
