I must admit that this book didn't really interest me but after reading your review I may just change my mind. I down loaded it on my kindle and put it on my To read shelf.

Woah, mystery thrillers are right up my alley! I wonder how Claire can clear her name if she's being pinned to the murder. It's a shame you guessed the ending before you read it. However, the plot twists seems really interesting.

I just began reading mysteries because romance is normally my genre, but this review makes this a story I certainly can read. Great review and since the author was generous enough to offer it as a free download I will be reading this is the near future.

Thanks for your review! I love mysteries with cool plot twists, can't wait to read this one! I love that it's set in New Orleans - that seems to be a popular place for book settings lately.

The idea of adding layers to the story by switching narration between the leading lady and secondary characters seem an excellent one. I'm hooked to the plot and adding the book to my "To Read" shelf.

I'll certainly be reading this one, especially since the author was so kind making it free :) . Thank you for the informative review. It's too bad that you could guess who it was, but the twists and turns are always good in a mystery. I love good characters and vivid scenery, so I think that I'll like it.
