The Protagionist, Alex, is a character that the reader will like immediately; she's smart, saavy and very loyal to an old friend. But, should she put everything in her life at risk to help this old friend? The plot is well-constructed and holds the readers attention. The characters are believable and compelling. I believe Clare Francis is a talented mystery writer and I hope to see more of her books.
