Sarah Woods enters the house of a rapist to steal sex tapes back for her client. Then, she gets involved with what appears to be an attempted murder on a dying woman. She carouses with friends and keeps her lover in the loop. She jogs when she doesn't have anything better to do, and the story never stops running.This is an old school mystery with modern sensibility and mannerisms. It's fun. It reads like butter, and there's no wonder the author is a best seller with the Sarah Woods series. A Taste of Sin should be no exception. The storyline is articulate, intricate and smart. All the characters are attractive and interesting. Well, the rapist is not attractive, but when he takes Sarah back to his place and gets her drunk, the moments that follow are so thrilling my Kindle almost imploded.Nothing leads the reader toward the revelation in the end-- that's another masterpiece in itself. Overall, this is simply excellent writing and the biggest surprise is that the author and her books are not better known. Hello, Netflix? Yes, you. I want this on TV. Now.
