Eh, this book is fine. Nothing really new, if you know what I mean. It took me a looooong time to get into it, and I finished it because I hate not finishing a book. Good for the beach, but characters are ones you will easily forget.

Reviewed this book for newmysteryreader and liked it a great deal. Gave it a 4.5/5.0
I always enjoy books by J.A. Jance and this one did not disappoint. I like the familiar characters especially Ali Reynolds.
This one was really good! It felt a lot like the first in the series. Excited to read more!

I listened to the audio version of this book and as usual this narrator leaves a lot to be desired. Again, the mispronunciation of Tempe. She also doesn't pronounce "Prescott " like the local she is supposed to be.
Nobody says "V-I-N" for vehicle identification number, it is just "vin". In a previous book she said "Chevy L-U-V" instead of just "Chevy Luv". I don't know for certain that this was the narrator's fault or if Jance actually spelled them out. Either way, it is irritating to be pulled from the story because you are thinking "Really? Who talks like that in real life??".
