Overall, this mystery was engaging and parts of the resolution I expected and yet other events were completely unexpected. Martin was ok, but he kept too many secrets and he acted more bothered by Roe than anything else. I think she has something better coming to her.

I always had thought Martin wasn't quite right for Roe.

*SPOILER* (Although others have spoiled the same thing throughout the majority of the reviews on Amazon) The death at the end of this book shocked many readers. The book is now 11 years old and Harris's fans are still reeling from the ending of this one. Show More with spoiling a mystery plot as each scene tends to unravel some more information. I believe many of the events that happened herein will be fairly significant for the last two books of the series. Overall, a quick and interesting read and definitely a pivotal point in the series. You've got Roe's whole back story about how she can't conceive children, the fact that Martin was previously married and has an older son who doesn't really acknowledge Roe as his father's new wife and didn't even bother to attend their wedding, and then an even more jaw dropping surprise at the very end. By the end, I was left feeling a little bit empty, and I wonder if maybe that was done on purpose. anyone!įor some reason, this particular installment in the Aurora Teagarden mysteries seemed a bit more shallow than the previous ones, though it's hard to put my finger on exactly what was missing.
