The Orphanage By The Lake by Daniel G. Miller
4.0
Ｅｂｏｏｋ Ｒｅｖｉｅｗ
3.5 ☆
Hazel wants a new life. She is thirty years old, single, and her private investigation business is months away from folding. Her luck changes when Madeline Hemsley, a mysterious socialite, visits with an offer too enticing to resist. An orphan girl has disappeared from a children's home—The Orphanage by the Lake, as the locals call it—and Madeline wants Hazel to find her.
Now, this book cover and premise are what made me super interested in this story. A missing Black, biracial girl missing from an orphanage. Sign me up! This book definitely gave me Frieda McFadden vibes, in a good way. It was a super quick and easy read. It doesn't drag on and pretty much gets straight to the point. Once you hit the 40% mark, the book falls into place and becomes predictable, in a good way. I enjoyed it.
Thank you, Netgellay, and Poisoned Pen Press for the Ebook in exchange for my honest review.
