A pretty good read. The love story between Colin and Emily continues but is established and not very exciting at this point. The crime part of this book is gritty and a bit depressing. The Maggie character says "y'all" too much (20 times). In addition to overdoing it, the use of the word is wrong. It's 'you all' and is pretty much never used to refer to a singular person, but rather is used for 2 or more people, even if the second person isn't being spoken directly to. Repeatedly it's used in this book when Maggie is only adressing and referring to one person. For example: "I know y'all don't know me very well, Peter, but I'm a lot more than just a pretty face." it would have been fine if it were more than just Peter that Maggie was speaking of. Anyway, this annoyed me over and over again.
