I started the Rosato & Associates series from the beginning and I'm so glad I did. These are great female characters in suspenseful situations that I just can't stop reading.

I had no idea what was going on the whole time, but didn’t care enough to try to figure it out

Umm character development? (Spoiler alert)
First of all, Bennie's personality changed about eight times throughout the book. She's lovesick but still the boss; she's a quick-witted jokester; she's all serious business; none of the personalities fit together. Then Grady Wells?? Gimme a break. I literally had no clue who he was, there was NO relationship between the two of them, and suddenly they're falling madly in love, when it seems fairly obvious he's the killer...and then... not? And they live happily ever after? Smh.

mysterious
medium-paced
- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? No
- Loveable characters? It's complicated
- Diverse cast of characters? No
- Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

I have mixed feelings about this book. It had a very slow start, I almost stopped reading the book. Then the middle was decent but the main character had too many lucky breaks for it to be believable. If this had happened in real life she would have been caught day one. Then the ending was EXTREMELY rushed. It made me so angry! We spent 60 pages leading up to the murder but then 1 page on the closure of the crime. The motive was never fully explained and again things were wrapped up WAY too easily for the main character to be believable. If you want a quick read that isn’t completely believable then this book is for you but if you like a mystery with substance then I would skip this one.
