Second Thoughts

Jackie Kaminsky #2

by Dalton

Readers of Margot Dalton's First Impression will recognize Detective Jackie Kaminsky. This time she's in charge of a murder investigation--one that strikes painfully close to her own life and tests the bonds of newfound love.

It seemed like a routine break and enter until Spokane detective Jackie Kaminsky took a second look at the evidence....

The intruder knew his way around Maribel Lewis's home--yet took nothing.

The intruder left a threatening letter ... and a vile photograph.

The intruder seems to know Maribel's deepest secret--and wants payment in blood.

Then the killing begins. And the suspects are all members of Maribel's strange extended family--a hostile son, an ex-daughter-in-law, an oddly aloof teenage girl and a terrified grandson. But when the suspects become victims, it's clear...

Everybody's guilty of something ... and now somebody's guilty of murder.

[Terry Polston · Rating 4 out of 5]

Jackie's first homicide case. An extremely dysfunctional family. It made it hard to get a bead on which one was the culprit. There was even bad blood between them and the neighbors
A few logistical questions: how does Paul have enough money to fix up the farm and but animals if he isn't working at a paying job? Where was Stanley's car?
I had a bead on the wrong culprit, so, well done.
I would recommend this book.

Trop de détails !! On devine à la moitié du livre l'identité de l'assassin. Aucune intrigue

I enjoyed this. A gentle thriller which made you care about the characters. I think the killer was fairly easy to guess but nevertheless it was crafted quite well and came to a satisfying conclusion.

Again, another good book by Dalton.
