Customer Review


A grieving husband walks into Sylvia Wilcox's private detective agency on Christmas Eve and asks her to solve his wife's murder. The husband, Carson Stark, can't understand why his wife, Liza, was in one of Detroit's worst neighborhoods, or why anyone would want to kill her. The police suspect infidelity, but a review of the case files and information leading up to Liza's murder fails to produce any evidence of disloyalty on Liza's part. As Sylvia works diligently to follow up on any and all leads, she is continuously met with roadblocks thrown up by secrets and lies from Liza's mysterious past.

I've read quite a few books in this genre and this one is very well written. There's a lot of compassion in this book for the characters and those they represent in real life (perhaps?). I didn't really see the starting of a relationship coming, though, so I was surprised by it when it suddenly popped up in the end. The revelation of the killer also seemed like a sudden exhale at the end of the book (I hope that made sense).

4.5 for plot and it being unfolded. Never would have guessed the killer. But there were some very obvious errors mostly with confusion in information that had already been shared with Sylvia.

It is a good book. It is not boring but not very exciting also. As you are reaching the end you feel the book has ended rather abruptly.
