This is scary but not so as The Morning After both have the same people in it. But it is well worth reading if you like mysteries.

This was not as good as the other novels I have read by Lisa Jackson, but even knowing that I would have read it because I really like he books. There are a little too many twists in it to make it believable but if you allow your imagination to take over it is an ok read.

Normally I can figure out who did it way before the end of the book, not so in this case. There weren't any real clues to point you in the right direction. As such this book read more as a story than a mystery.

Ms Jackson is a wonderful author that can paint a vivid setting that comes alive in your imagination. Or the setting can go on and on and on before it bores you half to death.

The romance aspect of the story seemed more of an afterthought than anything. It popped out of nowhere and never really seemed to mesh with the characters or the story.

All things considered its not a bad read.

It is a mystery about a husban that is murdered and the wife is being accused. She wakes up covered in blood and doesen't remember. I thought this book was good, and it is part of a sequence. The other book is called the morning after.
