How could you not like a heroine that looks like Marilyn (and her mother does too.) and solves crimes to boot.  Fun series with interesting characters and lots of action.The basic premise is that Mercy who is by trade a nurse can't seem to keep from being sucked into trouble.  Her father a retired policeman and now a PI seems to be part of the cause.  Ms. Hartoin writes the story pretty much tongue in cheek when it comes to Mercy's looks and has a light humorous hand with dialog and skill and creating and interesting plot.  Her characters are quirky and fun and the books move at a good pace.  While a little long for a single sitting these are books you don't want to put down.You will want to read "Good Man Gone" before this one to understand some of the references but the book can be read as a standalone.  You will just be missing the fun of all of the other Mercy Watts Mysteries.
