I needed something to read. This had been given to me and sat on the shelf for several months. I finaly grabbed it. Wish I had not.What a bore. It was also uncredible with the dying mother saying she had done something so terrible. The police launch a full investigation (yeah sure). Multiple bad guys keep getting invented at random. I thought I was going to indulge myself into some fun pulp fiction entertainment. No entertainment here at ALL!
This book was not up to the usual Kellerman/Alex Delaware standards. I think maybe JK has run out of ideas and is stretching a bit too much. There were way too many characters who were not well developed confusing the reader. And what PD has the time to spend on a crime which never was reported? I know we have to suspend belief when reading fiction, but, come on, Milo and Alex solved a series of murders from nothing more than a few words from a dying woman???
I only kept reading to see if anything interesting was happening in the private lives of Alex & Robin and Milo & Rick!
JK, please don't just keep churning out books.
