Denim McHart and Sylvia Price, introduced in book one of this series, are engaged private investigators. They sometimes work with the Briar's Point Police Department. This time they were working with Detective Orlando Batemen, Sylvia's former partner. Orlando had fallen in love with her years ago and couldn't accept that Den and she was the perfect couple. It was hurtful to him that he had to see her so happy with someone else. He withdrew into himself and concentrated only on his job, his family and his relationship with God.

The case which came up this time involved a missing person, a visibly impaired woman, and the monies and items stolen by this now-absent boyfriend of hers. Keeya Nilsen reported a stolen debit card, several hundred bucks, and a box of her famous grandfather's compositions. Her life was supported by her best friend, Blair, and her uncle Pax. Her parents were killed in the same accident as Blair and she were injured.

Karen Wiesner has another winner on her hands! Once again, I've embarked upon a series created by Ms. Wiesner which grabbed my attention from the beginning. I do not normally like to read mysteries. However, her writing style kept my interest once again.

Wiesner has quickly become one of my favourite authors. Her ability to write across genres assures that many readers are constantly reaching for her books. She isn't afraid to attack the more controversial situations in a Christian's life. Examples of this are the scriptural command to "be not unequally yoked" as well as abstinence from sex until marriage.

These characters are outstanding and so compelling. It was easy to get involved with them, as well as the many others that rounded out the storyline. The hint of book number 3 in the series excited me also. The action was intense at times and she presented us with another shocking ending.

I highly recommend this beautifully written, emotional book to everyone. You will definitely be glad to have read it. She has hooked me on a whole new set of characters and town.
