3.0

Overall, just an okay book. It was fun to see how the clues all lead to the next clue, but it was very predictable. Less than half way through, I was already certain with how it would end and I was completely right. The main character was also perfect and had no flaws. She made seemingly stupid decisions but they all worked out perfectly. And even with her step daughter, who was openly defiant, she always handled it perfectly, which was just completely unrealistic. It was really just a mediocre, predictable, modern, mystery book. 3 stars
