I liked this as a mystery, intricate plotting, well developed characters and a  storyline that progressed nicely made an entertaining, quick read. Interesting characters and situation, with main character a divorced mother of three teenagers working as a researcher for an author planning a book on unsolved murders.I'm a character driven reader however and I do wish I'd liked the main character better. She seemed to vacillate between being a strong, independent woman who was making her way as a divorced mother raising her children with little outside support and a person who was insecure and ineffective. I also had difficulty in connecting with the main male protagonist, the 'romantic interest' in the book, for somewhat the same reason. The behaviors just seemed somewhat erratic.I liked the plot and story so ended up with a 4 star rating but would have been happier with stronger main characters.
