Sorry, I like this series, but this is ridiculous. I sympathize with her politics, but the thinly veiled “ bad guys “ in this were beyond belief. And the whole vampire part of the story just silly and unnecessary. I kept reading, but kept wondering why I bothered. You could tell the villain from the very beginning; the baroque twists that got you to the end were just….baroque. Straining credibility is putting it mildly!

Her best book

There were several families who were involved in supposedly unrelated events. The plot thickens. The only reason I gave it a four was that the it was difficult to remember the relationships of the characters. When reading this book, it might be a good idea to jot down the characters as they appear.

This is another excellent book by Sara Paretsky. One of the finest writers, especially mysteries. She manages to write well and keep it fast paced and very interesting. Whenever I start one of her books I can't stop reading it until I finish it. I especially like mysteries in which I can't guess who did it and she manages to keep me wondering who did it to almost the end of every novel.
