RATING : ๐๐๐๐๐
Another great read in the Chris Matheson Series. This is the first series I have read by this author, and I am excited to read more. She captivates you from the first page. The way she gives a character list with every book makes it easy to follow every time a new name pops up. Reading her novels really plays into my fascination with solving crimes without doing the dirty work. Iโll put the book down and move on with life, but I still find myself thinking about the cases. Thatโs how I know she is an author I will continue to read.
This time, we are solving quite a few cases. A family friend left her last dying wish to Chris, and that was to find out what happened to her late husband. Thereโs also a plot twist: she is the woman who everyone thought died a few decades ago, or so she claims. That woman being Mecedes Livingston, a well-known author. Her wish is for her name to be cleared of any wrongdoing and for her legacy to go to her kids.
So now Chris must figure out what really happened all those years ago, clear the family friend’s name, and pass on her legacy. Once again, he enlists the help of the Geezer Squad. I mean, why wouldnโt he? We have murders, suspects, and a lot of action. It can be a little complicated, but solving a crime, especially decades old, is not easy. I highly enjoyed this book.
