Favorite Lines: “Montgomery’s pants and boxers were pushed down to his ankles. His legs were spread, his groin a bloody mess.His penis had been removed in a bloody manner, resulting in severe muscle and tissue damage.” (14)
As I read the beginning of this book, I felt as if I were being knocked on the head by deja vu. I can’t put my finger on the book, written in the 90’s, that is similar to this book. I began reading this book quickly. As time passed, the story slowed for me. There was no obvious flaw, it just didn’t move me. There’s another book in this series, but I doubt that I read it. Am I glad that I read it? I don’t care one way or the other.
Julia Chandler burned Connor Kincaid in court years ago. Today Connor is a private investigator who is shunned by the police community he used to be part of. Julia is a rising star in the prosecutor’s office and aunt to a young girl who is charged with a heinous crime.
Murder is the crime. The victims are deliberately picked. It is time for secrets to be revealed, but will the secrets exonerate Julia’s niece or incriminate her?

Egads! What a horrible way to go. That memorable sentence will be lodged in my brain for a week now. *_*
I love the new blog look, btw. Very clean and crisp!
How did the corned beef and cabbage go for St. Patty’s day? We ended up bbq’ing. ^_^
Happy Monday!

Cora- I didn’t even tell you where it ended up…
Thanks, I like the clean look, for the moment. As far as the corned beef and cabbage, it was yummy. My family tore it up. I had a bowl and they ate the rest: two heads of cabbage and a large brisket.

Your favorite line of the book made my crotch hurt, and I’m not even a guy. lol
I’ve been seeing this series everywhere, but have been on the fence about buying it. Should I or Shouldn’t I?

Holly- I wouldn’t buy it again. If you get it for free… the beginning is interesting enough. If given another chance at buying this book or getting a different one, I’d get a different book.

I think I’ll hold off for now. Thanks!
