5.0

"Never judge a book by its cover, especially when the book is a person, was the lesson."

Oh, I think I'm going to just adore this series. I really liked the first book, but this one really did it for me. I loved the connection between Laurie and Rosemary, and how in the end the only thing that really matters about this show is finding details to bring peace to someone who otherwise would have never had it. When rosemary lost her daughter, she seemed to be the only person who wouldn't give up on finding out who killed her Susan. Nor would any mother, I think.

I loved the speech in the end when Laurie relates her own story about her murdered husband to only allow Rosemary to see even a tiny bit more why she helped her. Why she chose to bring forth cold cases and attempt to solve them.

And this story also had a bit of a love story for Laurie inside of it as well. And Tommy in the end, being to excited about it, it was the true tipping point for me. This was such a good book. The plot was so special. The two separate storylines were interesting. And I absolutely did not want to put it down. Can't wait to grab the next one!
