Well, I finished this one up on Saturday. This was a good book, with some surprise twists and some predictable - but, overall a good murder mystery. I had a love/hate experience with her references to Kansas. I loved that the book took place in "Small Plains, KS" - and I especially loved all the highway references that took me back to the Manhattan area. But, I cringed when she had a character say "at K-State University." *cringe* Hello. If they live 30 minutes away, they would not say somebody went to K-State University. Maybe Kansas State University. Maybe KSU. Maybe Kansas State. But, probably just K-State..... and never the former. The author lives in Prairie Village, so I studied her face so I could let her know when I someday run into her at the Hen House.
Ok. So, back to the book. This one starts off 25 years ago, with a mysterious, murdered young woman, and then quickly brings you to present day. You feel all the consequences of the past, but don't have any answers. Throughout the book, the author continues to take readers back to 1987 to continue to fill in the gaps. It's a good, quick read. Would be great for a plane or poolside.
