This book has everything - a little romance, some old-fashioned friendship, some family dynamics and a couple of crimes to solve. Sophie and Ben make a great team, both in the crime-solving department and in love.

Extra fun is thrown into this story by Sophie's great connections to people who can help solve the crimes. The characters in the book truly seem real, and their relationships with each other is perfect. Some are serious, but most are fun. Even when things became tense and dangerous, there was belief that the good guys would win.

I recommend the book to anyone who enjoys multi-faceted crimes that call upon multiple disciplines to work the cases and love getting into the details. The book is very well-written and very enjoyable to read!
