I have enjoyed the multitude of good authors that I have discovered through having an e-reader.  There were times that I have questioned where the upcoming authors were as it seemed that the library only had the traditional authors and not many new ones.  Kindle books has opened up an entire range of really good authors that I would never have found in a traditional library!I enjoy reading the reviews for the books, and am always in awe of those who write detailed, professional reviews.  I am not one who dissects each book I read.  I love to read good stories.I found this book to be an interesting read.  Having lived in suburban Detroit for many years, I was familiar with many of the places referred to in the story always makes the story more interesting.That being said, I also noted a few things that I Feel I want to comment on:1.There were a lot of cooking details that did not add to the story, including one lengthy description of making a Greek soup.  I understand that food is important in the Greek family atmosphere, but the detailed foods didn't seem to need to be there.2.Many authors who jump from character to character within the same chapter/timeline will indicate the change with a slight separation, and maybe a centered line to indicate the change.  I found it hard when the author went from one character doing this and that and then after a page or so, suddenly the next paragraph jumped to another character and it covered the same timeline that the first character just went through.  I would have to read a bit and say to myself "Meanwhile..."  Major authors like James Patterson will either do a separation or just another chapter. (Or he will have short chapters covering the characters.)3.There were an awful lot of family members to keep track of as the book went on which did become confusing at times.4.The main murder that Jill is working on doesn't seem to be totally resolved.  She still has questions.  But maybe the point is in the real world it doesn't always get tied up in a pretty bow by the end of the case.  There was a secondary murder in the plot that I expected to learn more about, but it did not materialize.5.The sudden, abrupt ending was the second book in a row that I have experienced this with!  You are trying to turn the page and there is nothing!I did enjoy the story and the abrupt ending may indicate a possible series of books.  I would read another if that is the case.
