Chief Among Us is a fascinating mystery novel that is very unpredictable. Just when you might think you have it all figured out, new motives, opportunities, and alibis keeps on popping up. Thanks for your review.

From a sampling, this seems like an interesting mystery novel following Maria, a Chief Financial Officer, who was fired because of a disagreement and a promotion fight with the man that then became the current CEO. Several weeks later, Maria finds out that there is an issue with the employee's payroll and that her son might be involved. Will she discover what is really happening? It might be worth a second look. Well done.

I’m looking forward to digging into this novel to find out how Maria and her friend will be able to unravel the mystery surrounding the payroll issue involving her son. Why was she fired and what was in the picture of her sent to the CEO about? I love mystery books and this one is right up my alley.

I cannot imagine the horror Maria felt when she found out a picture of her was sent to someone who was never supposed to receive it. Will she be able to clear her son's name? A reader has to wonder. Thanks for the review!

This mystery novel sounds like it keeps the reader guessing until the end of whodunit. I also like that the author addresses some misconceptions about aging. Great review!

:clap: Job well done on putting together such an amazingly enticing review of the book :clap:. My love for a storyline that has crime and mystery is immediately triggered by my agreement to the part in your first paragraph saying: "A thrill comes with reading books based on solving mysteries" then the rest of your insightful breakdown becomes a hook and liner followed by my interest to knowing who the culprit at the end is. :tiphat: Appreciated!!
