Although there were obvious clues that were shrouded by other factors, these factors were successful enough to distract the detective but not me.

Everyone around Harriet — from Harriet’s family down to the stage manager — has a motive to murder, if given the right opportunity.

My Thoughts....

I must say I loved this thriller mystery by this author. I read the second novel first and now that I have read this first of the 'Sleepy Carter Series' it makes a lots of sense to what all had gone on earlier in the first novel. I found the read quite entertaining as well as one of those reads that will certainly keep your attention as one finds 'Sleepy Carter quite a unique and mysterious character. This was definitely one of those read that will keep you guessing till the very end. Now, that I have read the first two of these mystery reads I will be looking forward to the third series to see will will become of Sleepy Carter with his well kept secret, Lizzy Silverman and let's not forget that Farrington partner. Well done to the author!

This book. THIS BOOK. You guys, I seriously can't even. It took a re-read for me to be able to form enough words to write a review about it. And even then, I'm not sure this is going to be coherent.

This book starts with a bang, with things developing in my ship--and then coming to a sudden halt. It physicallyhurt, because my little cinnamon rolls are so confused and baffled and I just want to hug them and spell out to them that they're falling in love. And that it's going to be okay.

Even though, let's be honest, it probably won't be. Not sure how Others are going to take a courtyard leader being mated with a human, but that's a worry for some other day.

We have enough to worry about in this installment as it is. Such as two dangerous drugs wrecking havoc among the humans and Others, starting conflicts that end in bloodshed and death and destruction. Mostly for the human side of things...
