Could Recommend
I am a fan of Roseanna M White. I have really enjoyed her other series that I have read.
However, this one was a bit hard for me to get through. It was long and didn't hold my attention like I expected it to. The plot was fine...the characters enjoyable...but for some reason it just didn't draw me in like I had hoped.
There was nothing objectionable that I can recall.
Another complaint that I will mention is that there were a lot of characters and the mystery itself was a bit involved. Whenever I'm reading a book and I have to stop and think about who someone is because I can't keep everyone straight, it's a bit of a turnoff for me. I didn't follow the resolution of the mystery all that well. Granted, it might have been because I was a bit checked out of the book by the time it came around.
Overall, I could recommend this book because I can't recall anything offensive but I don't know that I would recommend based off of my experience.
It took me quite a while to get really interested in the story, but I did finally engage. I agree about too many characters making it hard to keep everyone straight. That happened to me, too. It did seem a departure from her previous couple of series that we loved. Can't decide if I will try the next in this series or not.
