Shattered Lens is good enough I hope it becomes a series." ~Richard S. Prather, Author of the Shell Scott Mystery Series"I am becoming hooked on Catherine Winter. I found I didn't want to put Fractured Image down since I wanted to know the ending of all the intrigue. I hope Linda Pendleton will continue with this series." E. Cook
