The circumstances surrounding the death of Lacey's Uncle Felix certainly do seem suspicious. I'm not into crime thrillers, but I'm sure fans of the genre will enjoy this book. The fact that the characters are well-developed gives the book a strong nudge in the right direction. It's a shame that there are so many errors. Hopefully, the author will have the book proofread again to fix them. Thanks for the awesome review!

From what the review shows the book needs further editing. It is moving though. Investigative thrillers can be quite engaging. Zoey is a good investigator and researcher and she may be right about her uncle's death. Thank you BOTD.

Too bad about the errors! Thanks for the great review!

Today's BOTD is a fast-moving crime thriller that will attract fans of the genre. While working on a cold case, Zoey's uncle is killed. Suspecting this isn't an accident, she takes it upon herself to get to the bottom of things. I can't wait to find out the truths that are revealed! Thanks so much! :-)

If I had a dime for every time the hero/heroine of a story circumvented the authorities and took matters into their own hands...well, I don't have a dime for any of those moments, but Zoey's story sounds like it would be thrilling. I'd love to see what she finds out about her uncle.

Zoey Callaway has experience as an Information Professional. This answers the question of why she's good enough to investigate her uncle's demise. I like it when stories take the time to fill in these kinds of gaps to make the plot more relatable and believable.

I am looking forward to digging into this book to find out who killed Zoey Calloway’s uncle. It surely will push her more to solve this mystery since it is her blood relative. I love mystery novels because I always know who the killer is before the reveal and I am so excited to bed successful on this one.

A book based on someone's inner detective and how an investigation turns into karma for the one who murdered this lady's uncle. Sounds interesting. This book would go on my bookshelf.

I’m not really interested in the crime thriller genre, but I hope others enjoy reading how Lacy uncovers her mystery.
