Review
""Touted as 'England's answer to Janet Evanovich, ' Evans fills the bill with wild and weird plots and a heroine...who is nearly as spunky, sassy, and wacky as Stephanie Plum."
Suzanne Yager, SUNDAY TELEGRAPH
'It's good to have her [Grace Smith] back in action in another enjoyable mystery.'

Grace Smith scrapes a living as a PI in an English seaside town. This is the 5th in a series and as in other books, Grace finds herself being talked into things against her better judgement. In this case, an 18 year old who was adopted when her mother went to prison wants Grace to find out more about the circumstances, but Grace also finds herself with an alcoholic parrot to care for.
This has an entertaining storyline with some very funny moments - Grace is spiky and sometimes tempted to do things which are a bit unprincipled, but this makes her more entertaining to spend time with.
It's taken me a while to read this one but I've recently ordered no 6 in the series "Cue the Easter Bunny".

PI Grace Smith gets better with each story. The twists and turns of this novel where compeling reading and I read this book in two days. The support characters are excellant especially Terry Rosco. Some of this situations with him are so cringeworthy you can feel your toes curling in embarrasment for Grace. Also a possible hint of ongoing romance for Grace with one of the characters - I hope so.

I've read 3 of Evans' Gracie Smith's novels, and this one is by far the best. However, reading it made me very confused - the plot didn't gel properly although the 'twist in the tale' left you thinking. Also, her characters are pretty farsical - although this is typical of Evans, I prefer some believability in the personalities, and this is possible, read some Mike Ripley. Also, Terry Rosco appears to have obtained a personality transplant, compared to Don't Mess with Mrs In Between and Barking - still maybe desperate times means desperate measures. Whatever, the novel left me somewhat disappointed.
