Oh this was really interesting and a really fun read. More on the darker ends at the end but it was super enjoyable at the end nonetheless and I had a lot of fun!

Some twenty-two years ago, Lisa Kane’s mother Rebecca was murdered. She was just a toddler at the time. She now contacts PI Tracey Marks to look into the case. Lisa believes that she is starting to recall the events more clearly.

There are several suspects including Rebecca’s husband (whom she was divorcing), her brother (she had a violent disagreement with him), her boyfriend and a friend and a business partner. How in the world is Tracey to wade through this cast of characters?

Fortunately, she has a very supportive circle of friends.

I thought the dialogues were done well. The writing is easy to follow and the plotting is simple and straightforward. Thus it is a relaxing, fun read. I liked Tracey and her boyfriend Jack. They seem to have a good relationship. Tracey is learning to be introspective and she wants to find out why she is afraid of commitment. I enjoyed reading this novel and look forward to reading more of Ms. Shapiro’s work. I would put this book more into the “cozy” category than pure mystery.

There are a couple of typos. Agatha Christie’s famous fictional detective is referenced...and it's “Hercule Poirot.” not “Perot.”

I want to thank NetGalley and BooksGoSocial for forwarding to me a copy of this delightful book for me to read, enjoy and review. The opinions expressed here are solely my own.
