"I enjoyed this crime mystery. I think this one was nicely done because the author allowed the main character to transition. The story is told in the voice of the husband of the accused, a prison psychologist who is imprisoned for the murder of a recently released inmate and his new prison-wed wife. The husband is focused on finding the evidence necessary to exonerate his dearly loved wife. As the story progresses, his enthusiasm wanes as he learns more about his wife and more about himself, until at last he finds what he was looking for, but does he really want it now? Hmmmmmm."
"Not my cup of tea. I struggled to get through this book. I was so looking forward to it but was disappointed. It was S L O W! The only thing I can say good about it is that there were some surprises at the end of the book. But even the unexpected was overshadowed by the long, drawn out story."
"Actually, I only read about 25 pages of this book. It was vulgar and uninteresting. When someone feels the need to use expletives so often, the book loses my interest. I do not recommend this book."
