disappointment! third try for her books and just can't read them so full of description and takes forever to get to the story and this one has too much back and forth, back and forth just makes it too hard to stay with it.

I thought this book was excellent. Don't let the subject matter make anyone nervous that it will be too heart wrenching. Though it does have a lot of sad moments I never found them overwhelming until the last sentences of the book made me cry and so glad that I had read the book. Laura Lippman is a fantastic writer and this was such a great story. I really loved this book.

I just could NOT get into this book. I could not stand the way her characters referred to cops. "I'm a police because..." "A police would never..." AHHHH, it's a cop, not a police. And it just dragged on and on.

Just not for me at all.

This was a quick engaging read, and I did not see the end coming. I don't usually read mysteries so I wanted so badly not to like this book but I have to admit that I did enjoy it after all.
