JudyGibson | Jan 26, 2023 |   Far too often these days writers seem to feel they must include characters who are jerks. Not the bad guys, but the main team.

Also, and maybe most important, the point of view is a mixed one with a first person POV from the main character Jess and focus on other characters from an omniscient POV. I found this very confusing, like "who's telling this story anyhow?
Still, the people are likable and (mostly, this is a murder mystery after all) kind to each other. I especially liked the police detective, Leo George, and am interested in following this series just to see him develop. (
