What a great, refreshing, character driven crime mystery. It pulled me right along.

Could not put it down! The author is a wonderful story teller, with just the right amount of back-story and description.

A quick, satisfying read. The comparisons to Laura Lippman are spot on. I solved one of the mysteries fairly early on, but still enjoyed inhabiting the lives of the characters.

A solid story that ties up several threads the story creates.

It's great when characters don't explain themselves to death and the reader is left with some puzzlement. I look forward to more of Berney's books.
