I don't feel I read enough to give any stars. Don't know how I found this series...it just sounded interesting. Library doesn't have #1 in any format, so I started with #2. Feng Shui is obviously more involved than I had thought. Unfortunately, the mystery isn't as interesting. I really tried to stick with it but ultimately skipped to the ending which seemed pretty boring, too. The epilogue was more a Feng shui tutorial than part of the story.

It was a fine story/ mystery. Not great. I loved the previous books in the series but this one was slower and not as engaging plus the ending was lackluster.
