4.0
"A Dead Sister" was another enjoyable Jessica Huntington tale. Jessica is back to shopping sprees and getting in over her head in solving a cold-case murder. There was plenty of action on the story, but it took a little while to get to that point. In the beginning the information Jessica discovered about her childhood friend, Kelly, had to be conveyed to various people in different scenes. I felt myself wanting to skim over information the author had already provided. Once past that, however, the story picked up and became more intriguing. There are a number of places, too, that much background information is given in large doses. This would be easier to digest if given in context to the story, rather than merely to develop the characters. But, in all, the story was entertaining, and I'm looking forward to the next book later this year.
