I didn't quite know what to expect from Elizabeth Sims but I took a chance and I'm glad I did. Sims's character Lillian Byrd is unique, not entirely loveable and definitely a bit flawed. The mystery was well-written - I read it almost straight through and will try another book in the series. Although there's some humor in the book, it's not a cozy; however, I'm something of a wuss about too much graphic sex and violence and there wasn't anything that I couldn't handle.

Although it's a minor detail, it was also a pleasure to read a book that was printed on good quality paper for a change!
