City of Whispers by Marcia Muller

3.0

The latest in Marcia Muller's Sharon McCone series has Sharon mostly recovered from the "locked in syndrome" she experienced after being shot. However, she still gets tired and irritable when she can't do everything she did in the past. In this book she has been asked by her birth mother, Saskia, to find her missing half brother. Darcy has had a troubled life because of his addiction to drugs. He is in San Francisco now and has contacted Sharon asking for help. However, he has disappeared again. Sharon promises her mother that she will do everything she can and puts her investigative agency to work looking for Darcy. It soon becomes a complicated case that involves the death of a wealthy young heiress two years before. These books are fast reads. They are not particularly literary, but they are exciting and a fun diversion. Enjoy!
