Rating: 2 out of 5 stars on Goodreads
There was *a lot* going on in this book. So much so that at times I lost track of cases and characters, and I think the characters lost track of their own thought flows.
Evie Blackwell and the Missing Persons Task Force she's been assigned to is on their first official cases. Five cases; 5 task force members. Evie is for some reason paired up with David Marshal even though they are working different cases. All the other task force team members work solo and only pop up occasionally.
There are task for members, crime suspects, crime victims, witnesses, friends, love interests, famous people, security, hairdressers...just a lot of people and names to keep track of. And so many story lines: crimes for the task force, arson for not the task force, romantic ties, friendships, God, music, fan obsession.
I think this book just tried to do too much. And I think I'm settling into the idea that Dee Henderson writes relationship novels not suspense novels. As usual, Henderson brings in characters from her other stories and series. On that note, I think it's time to reread the O'Malley series - her best work, in my opinion.
P.S. Hate the cover.
