I absolutely loved this book, it kept my interest right from the beginning. The characters were easy to visualize and I had no idea untill the end who did it. Looking forward to other books by this Author. ( )

This is a straightforward whodunnit written with superb pacing. Plenty of surprises to keep the pages turning, a few red herrings to keep us wondering, and a well-handled personal story backgrounding the main character. Well written. Enjoyed reading it. ( )

I received an ARC of this book thru LT early reviewers in exchange for an honest review. This fun book follows renown journalist Kate Tessler as she returns home to convalesce after an injury suffered on one of her previous assignments. It’s her first time home in some time and the first time since her mom has been moved from home to the Alzheimer’s unit at Sunshine Haven. Soon after arriving, her dad gives her a note from the director of Sunshine Haven, who is also an old high school acquaintance. Kate visits the director who tells her of some suspicious deaths in the facility. Kate takes the case from a journalistic point of view and enlists others to help get to the bottom of what is going on. I enjoyed the book and simply let it take me for a ride. In some ways it reminded me of the “Thursday Murder Club” series. In general, the writing was strong but there were a few quickly discovered (or less explained) jumps in the plot along the way but it didn’t distract me as I read. Kate and her helpful gang are fun characters and I’d read more in this series. Recommended. 3.5 stars. ( )

My first time reading anything by this author and it was an interesting experience. The author keeps you guessing who the culprit really is which for me was a plus. I think a book gets boring when you know who did it in the beginning of the book. I would read the second book. ( )

I loved this book. It kept me on my toes. I thought I knew "who dun it" and realized I was way off. I liked the backstory of the protagonist. I also liked that even though it was a murder mystery the author still took time to explain the relationships within the family. I liked the "gang" that helped solve the mystery. They were a fun bunch and I look forward to getting some more face time with them and learning some more of their stories. Overall, I enjoyed this and can't wait for the next installment later this year.
