About the author

Ginny Aiken

51 books97 followers
Ginny Aiken, a former newspaper reporter, lives in Pennsylvania with her husband and their three younger sons--the oldest is married, has flown the coop, and made her a doting grandmother. Born in Havana, Cuba, and raised in Valencia and Caracas Venezuela, Ginny discovered books at an early age. She wrote her first novel at age fifteen while she trained with the Ballets de Caracas, later to be known as the Venezuelan National Ballet. She burned that tome when she turned a "mature" sixteen. An ecletic list of jobs--including stints as reporter, paralegal, choreographer, language teacher, retail salesperson, wife, mother of four boys, and herder of their numerous and assorted friends, including the 135 members of first the Crossmen and then the Bluecoats Drum & Bugle Corps--brought her back to books in search of her sanity. She is now the author of twenty-seven published works, but she hasn't caught up with that elusive sanity yet.

Not much to say about this book, just thought it was O.K. nothing exciting, and didn't take long at all to read.

This is the 4th book I read by Ginny Aiken. I liked the beginning. As I read on this slow became very slow moving.

With the theft of controlled substances from her pharmacey, Steph Scott is now the main suspect in the investigation. The victim of a mugging and several robberies, Steph has turned to the Shierff of her small hometown. Unknown to her, the Shierff is glad to help, and it has nothing to do with his job or title. But, he doesn't know what to when her favorite employee gets shot for not turning in the money he owed to drug dealers for the meth he'd been using, and the robber was watching her every move...

I genuinely liked the two main characters. Hal and Steph seemed to be the school nerds who made something of their lives. It was cute to see Hal still have his crush on Steph, which started in grade school, and still seem shy around her. The mystery about the break-ins and thefts at the pharmacy wasn't all the exciting or suspenseful. We still don't know who the mastermind is, so I guess there would be at least one more book in this series.

Good book, not quite worth a four star rating in my opinion. I will be looking for more books in this series.
