Book Description:
Investigative reporting has its hazards, but trouble hits home for Irene Kelly when her estranged aunt is murdered--and Irene becomes the leading suspect. With the police hot on her trail, Irene sets out to find cousin Travis, her dead aunt's son, convinced he's the next target.

But when Irene finds Travis, a camper-driving children's storyteller with suspiciously deep pockets, things blow up--literally. It takes several brushes with death, staying one step ahead of the law, and a few not-so-sweet reunions for Irene to untangle a complex web of family secrets and long-held grudges, and discover just who is killing off the Kelly clan--and why.

I am a HUGE fan of Jan Burke's Irene Kelly mysteries, and I consider her novel "Bones" one of the greatest thrillers in modern fiction. I've enjoyed every book of hers I've read, especially "Hocus" that was released before this one (which I highly recommend you read, not only because it's great but also because events in it are referred to in this novel) I'm sad to say this book did not grip me like her others, it didn't start off strong and wasn't fast-paced like she usually is. The main mystery is basically a lot of family drama, and there are numerous names and relationships you have to keep fresh in your mind just to make sense of the plot. Keep this in mind when you start this, and it might be a good idea not to read any other fiction until you've read this! I'm still looking forward to reading the other Burke novels in my TBR, this one just fell a little short for me :)
