Helpful Score: 2

I wanted to like this book. I really did. The actual mystery wasn't bad, the characters were ok and I wasn't opposed to the Inspirational Mystery part. The problem was that for pages at a time the Inspirational part took over the mystery part. The religious comment as part of a conversation works even some religious thought as Ivy does some soul searching is appropriate but there were passages that seemed to drag on that had no purpose other than to preach. There was a page about the church that the main character didn't even go to and pages on the history of the town. It was just to much extra detail and it stopped the flow of the story. I don't think I will read another book from the author. As an inspirational story it may work but as a mystery it certainly doesn't.
