This was only okay at best. I just can't recommend it.

RATING: 4.5/B+
GENRE/PUB DATE/# OF PGS: Mystery, 2000, 188 pgs
CHARACTERS: Willi Taft/back-up session singer
TIME/PLACE: 1990's, Nashville, TN
COMMENTS: 1st in the Willi Taft series. Willi's passion
in music is the blues but in Nashville it's country music
that pays the bills. She's had a good run and has made a
living but is tiring of the biz. Her new boyfriend is a
PI and she's been assisting him. Great characters, nice
feel for Nashville & the music business, a plot that
kept me guessing until the end.
