Thoughts on the Death of a Neighbor I Never Met
A man died in a fire a block away from our condo. The blue and red lights of police cars, fire trucks and ambulances flashed into our bedroom window; knowing we could do nothing, we closed the blinds and said a quick blessing, then went to sleep.

| This gets an A for atmosphere, although I'm not convinced we needed quite that much island hopping. The maps helped, but having to check them every chapter or slowed my reading flow. I enjoyed hearing the story from Willow in addition to Perez. My bi ...more | |

| WInspear phoned this one in. The first chapters should have been at least one book, maybe two. Seriously, how do you just dispatch James and a baby like that? They deserve to have lived on the page. Then this turns into a spy story. Maisie left all h ...more | |
