Trouble in Queenstown by Delia Pitts
5.0
Vandy Myrick has returned home to Queenstown, NJ to restart her life as a newly licensed private investigator. One of her first clients wants her to follow his wife to prove she’s having an affair. The job is routine, even boring, but her client is the nephew of the town’s powerful mayor and her business depends on referrals. It doesn’t take Vandy long to realize that nothing is as it seems.
Delia Pitts has written an outstanding mystery with characters who are either likable or delightfully despicable. Vandy Myrick is complex, broken, and trying to heal. Readers will find Vandy sympathetic even when she’s venting her anger.
By the end of the book readers will be hoping this is the first in a series and looking forward to spending time with Vandy again. If you love well-written books with a feisty main character, this is the book for you. If you dislike books written in the first person, set that dislike aside in order to enjoy reading this book with its complex storyline and well-drawn characters.
My thanks to Minotaur and Edelweiss for an eARC.
