Rife with corruption, the LAPD lacks motivation to investigate the death of a Chinese movie star. Suspecting foul play, the Chow sisters launch their own investigation.
KILL HER TWICE was a great historical mystery set in 1930s Los Angeles. The characters were interesting and I enjoyed the dynamics between the sisters. I liked how aspects of Chinese culture were woven throughout the story. The historical setting of Chinatown in 1932 captured the discrimination and challenges Chinese Americans faced as well as the rampant corruption within law enforcement and political forces. There was mystery. There was romance. The pacing felt a bit uneven. Overall, I was entertained. I'd recommend this book to fans of historical mysteries.
