Some aspects of this storyline were predictable but some did surprise me, the character arc o the lead was a little confusing and didn't always make sense.

Although most people probably know my love for Historical romances and fantasy/paranormal, I do enjoy crime and thriller novels. Why? because it has always been something I had fun watching with my family, and now I enjoy reading the books.
Missing for Good, is the kind of novel I enjoy reading in the mornings, to wake up with a missing case book and mysteries that grabbed my attention. I knew I couldn't read it at night or I would sleep only after I uncovered the truth. So I decided to only read this book in the mornings to start my day with excitement and curiosity. Who doesn't want to start the day with something interesting?
This is the second book of the series and it's my introduction to PI Hanlon. I was already curious about the series and book one, so I decided to take a chance and begin with the second installment in the series. Let me say I now have to go read the precious book, because I enjoyed this one very much.
The characters had me going, Hanlon was a fantastic character and I love her attitude and seeing her at work. The kind of character I would enjoy seeing in the big screen because my brain just isn't enough. And the other characters and the interactions added to my curiosity.
Then there is the plot and that was just brilliant and all the elements in the book made sense with the plot. Drama and mystery. The excitement of figuring out or theorizing about the crime. very page turner for me.
Overall, it was fun - can I use that word for a crime/thriller novel? - and I enjoyed every page of it. I can't wait to read the previous book in the series so I can see the character's development and see how that crime resolves. I will keep my eyes open for the future books in the series.
