I'll give 4 stars for this one.  The author created a good plot with twists and turns sufficient to keep me involved, intrigued, and caring, even though two or three coincidences are awkwardly forced.  There were no major grammatical errors, and the book is reasonably well edited with only a few typos - such as switching Kovak for Novak.The language is clean and free of swear words, which I appreciated.  People usually swear in order to impress others with their prowess, but using foul language descriptively reveals a severely inadequate vocabulary.  Barbara is an excellent example of the ability to stimulate the reader's imagination to a far greater degree than would the use of graphic gore or explicit sex.With these plusses, I would have given the book a 5-star rating, but I know from experience that not all prayers are answered so thoroughly or so promptly as in this story.  Not everyone can live happily ever after.  I'm sorry if that's a spoiler, but Barbara's solution is too easy.  When life turns on a dime, we don't often get back any change.
