Five Star Review on Amazon By Lynn Welden

While not an experienced reader in the mystery/suspense genre, this book won me over immediately. Plot and characters are terrific and totally believable and involving. The author had me guessing throughout,and I felt like Sudsy Hunter [the main character] and I became good friends during her relentless battle for truth and justice. To put it succinctly, I loved it. I hope the author will not wait too long to bring us further adventures of her engaging, funny, and likeable heroine.
