Mickey Hoffman was born in Chicago, and attended public schools where she acquired the strong suspicion that some of her teachers might be human. She wasn't able to prove this fanciful thinking until much later, when she became a high school teacher herself.

Before landing in the halls of academia, she worked in a variety of jobs, including computer typesetting and wholesale frozen fish sales.

The author is also a printmaker and painter. She resides on the West Coast with her long suffering mate, eight marine aquariums and a very large cat.

Mickey is the author of School of Lies, the first Kendra Desola mystery, and Deadly Traffic book two in the series.

I knew the identity of the killer very early in the book so the plot rather dragged for me.

We knew a bit about Sandy but didn't have the full scope of her personality until this book. My opinion is she was an extremely selfish and unstable human being, a person I not only couldn't like but one I disliked the more I read. ...more

I finally read this. The reason I didn't read it before this is because I don't like
reading prose written in the present tense. I haven't seen the series they made
from the book either. Anyway, I think it is rather boring and read the whole
thing a bit

The story was pretty slow moving and I got a little bored.
Perhaps if I liked the main character I'd like the series better.
Doubt I will read any more in this series.
