Also the lesbian cop sister was unnecessary, the cop romance was unnecessary, and Finley having not only 1 but 2 men somehow interested in her was unrealistic. This whole thing read like an unrealistic self insert fantasy.

Super fun mystery novel that kept me excited to find out what happens next the whole time. Finlay Donovan has the wit and charm to entertain even those who don't normally read mystery novels, I think. Finlay makes a great 'not your usual' detective being a mystery novelist and her nanny Vero and honestly the whole cast were great! (Is Georgia named after George Fayne...? My Nancy Drew sense were tingling...).
Personally, I thought the first chapter was really rough and almost made me not want to read the book at all. I'm glad I'm a "first 50 pages" kind of reader though, its great from chapter 2 onward.
If you want something lighter but with darker elements, I'd recommend it!

At times, it reminded me of Law & Order: Organized Crime, but that isn’t a bad thing.
