This was my first Judith Jance book, and it wasn't a promising beginning. In her efforts to set the stage for a whole new series, Jance forgot to tell a decent story. The characters, good and bad, were 2-dimensional, and the plot rested on the shaky foundation of the protagonist's stupidity. Maybe later books in the series are better, but skip this one.
Have read a few of these books but never able to get hold of the first one - was very pleased to do so and really enjoyed discovering how she "inherited" her husband's job and solving his murder. Am reading my first in the J P Beaumont series and enjoying that as well.
