Gypsy
When Detectives Matt Conley and Danny Angelo are called to the site of a grisly murder in a forest north of Boston, they begin a journey that will span New England – and challenge their beliefs about reality and the supernatural. Gypsies in a nearby campground lead Angelo to accuse knife-thrower Luca Starbird of the crime, while Conley’s in no shape to judge. His wife is dying, and Luca’s sister Gina bears an uncanny resemblance to the vibrant woman Lisa once was. The two could be twins. Luca escapes custody, and Conley and Angelo give chase. Another horrific murder raises the stakes. Tragedy strikes in the White Mountains and Conley snaps. He goes into hiding with the Gypsies on the Maine seacoast, pursuing a mission of justice and redemption only he can unravel or understand. Does Conley truly believe Luca is innocent? Or has he fallen under the spell of an enchanting Gypsy?

Oh, goodness.......................After reading a 5 star book, that took my breath away, this was my next book to read. I am not sure if this rating is because of the prior book being so awesome or what? I just could not get into this book. Each chapter was off onto something else, with new characters, and it took me awhile to connect the dots in the plot. The story was not all that exciting and I had a hard time concentrating. I just wanted the book to end.
I received this book through Goodreads for a honest opinion.
