By Lou Berney

I liked it a lot. I liked the descriptions, liked Wyatt a lot-his sarcastic nature. Not overwhelming, nicely done. I liked the sense of place and the descriptions.

I really enjoyed this. Gloomy, but I still liked it. I liked that the main characters solved their own cold case. How the clues unfolded was excellent. Very well written.

I usually don’t like two stories going on but I loved this. I liked that the stories only slightly intersected. Tragic, but the book was true to what happened. This was a stay-up-til-2 am book. I could really picture the characters.

Too many mysteries for me, but well done. Reminded me of Tana French, the psychology of it.

Pretty sad. Loved Wyatt’s sarcasm.

I really liked it. Generally I don’t like two mysteries but I think I appreciated having these two that didn’t end up as one package.
