One spine crease, front cover bent. Meryl Sawyer is a wonderful writer and this is a taunt fast paced mystery and a love story.
This book had a variety of what I would call "min-plots" and no one major suspense or mystery plot. Still, it was a quick, romantic read and if you like Meryl Sawyer you'll probably like this one.
