Revenge in Rubies by A.M. Stuart
4.0
This time Harriet is part of the police force and doesn't "run" into the crime scene. This book felt like more of a "Harriet" book (versus the first one, I felt like it was very much Curran).
The crime is a young woman is brutally murdered (in her sleep?) in her bed. Harriet gets involved because of her work with Curran and also because of the murder victim's sister-in-law (she's the female who can help Curran).
The mystery was interesting. There was no way to guess (although I did try and I was wrong a few times!). The descriptions of Singapore and the times were interesting. I do like that.
I actually started book 3 accidentally before I started this book, so my brain did get a little muddled. There's more of the back story of Harriet's past and of Curran's past (and Li An). You get more of the character development of both characters.
