A review by jigsawgirl
A Glimmer of Death by Valerie Wilson Wesley
3.0
While listening to this book, I admit I had to rewind several times because my mind had wandered or I fell asleep.
I have read books by this author before that I found to be good reads. I am not sure what was going on with this book. It was almost like I stepped into the middle of something that dragged on.
If I had a better understanding of the "glimmer" and "scents", or why Dessa was so reluctant to find out the full extent of what they meant, maybe it would have held my interest more. Or, if Dessa had focused more on the catering.
As it stood, I felt like I was dropped into this real estate office with all of these people who had secrets and Dessa was the odd woman out.
The most interesting part of the book to me was the Dessa, Royal, and catering situation. Her aunt with whatever knowledge she had was next.
I would give this 2.5 stars. It had moments, but just didn't flow for me.
