A review by sci_mom
The Trophy Child by Paula Daly

4.0

I was torn on whether to give this book 3 or 4 stars. I decided to go with 4 because I really like it until about the last 25%. The ending was abrupt and too neatly packaged. I won't do any spoilers, but it bothered me that the detective didn't keep unraveling the thread and find the twist herself. She was too sharp to not catch that bit. Also, that epilogue...too far. It was unnecessary. Otherwise, though, I did really enjoy the book and would read other stories by this author.
