It was ok. I thought I was enjoying the twist in the cell at the end- but the she ruined it. Fairly formulaic

Once años después de ingresar en el Departamento de Policía de Nueva York, la agente de crímenes sexuales Ginny Lavoie se encuentra suspendida de empleo y sueldo. Deprimida y víctima del insomnio, espera a que la obligada investigación de asuntos internos determine su futuro cuando una llamada telefónica la devuelve de golpe al pasado: Danny Markowicz, el hijo adolescente de su amiga Sonya, ha muerto tras recibir una brutal paliza. Ginny parte de inmediato camino del pueblo de Massachusetts en el que se crió para asistir al funeral. Pero allí se reencuentra con Jimmy, el padre del niño que ella nunca llegó a tener. Y, por si la situación no resultara ya lo bastante difícil, la versión oficial del crimen parece estar llena de agujeros. ¿Por qué las autoridades locales parecen empeñadas en culpar a Jack O´Brien, el inofensivo vagabundo del lugar? ¿A quién temía Danny lo suficiente como para esconder una pistola cargada en su habitación? ¿Y si la investigación sacara a la luz verdades que nadie quiere conocer?… (meer)

I loved this book from the beginning. I hated the ending. Too improbable. Too rabbit out of the hat mystery wrap-up in the last 20 pages. But I liked the beginning so much, I am going to read the next one in the series. Wish me luck.

Review: The Mortician’s Daughter by Elizabeth Bloom.

This book was a great story but I would have thought there was going to be a story about a mortician’s daughter growing up in a mortuary with her parents. Right off the story began with Ginny whose father was a mortician which ends there and is taken another path to Ginny being a NYC cop who is suspended and being investigated for abiding in a crime. This is where the story goes to her home town in Massachusetts to help her best friend, Sonya find out who brutally beat her nineteen-year-old son to death.

A confession was brought forth by a homeless Vet, so the town closed the case but Ginny for some reason thought he was belittled to confess and new he would not last locked up in a cell. Ginny’s intuition was right and within two days the homeless man hung himself in the cell. Ginny didn’t stop there; she went on investigating the case which made a few people in town wanted her gone. During the story there were three attempts on her Ginny’s life.

Its great writing, good characters, and the story is unpredictable. What kept me interested was that there was one event after another. I just think the cover and title of the book was misleading.
