Suspense
  BooksInMirror | Feb 19, 2024 |
Multiple murder mysteries surround Emily Watson, an assistant DA.
The multiple threads can be a little hard to follow. Medical phenomena that occurs with some transplants is not well enough presented.

Good read, but not her best ( )

Cleverly constructed plot revolving around a court case when a man is accused of murdering his estranged wife. ( )

This was a good book that kept me guessing. I'm not too thrilled about how the murder victim's heart was transplanted into the prosecutor's body. Thought that was a little far-fetched but everything else was interesting and kept me guessing. ( )

In the beginning I didn't really like the book, it bored me a little. I liked it but it didn't really grab me as a likable book, but as the book went on it got more interesting and more exciting I started reading it a little bit more and faster. Towards the end I found myself reading the book fast so I can find out what was going to happen. The end it got really exciting it had so much action it made the book more exciting. I was not expecting what happened at the end, it was a complete surprise to me. Anyone that reads this book it will be a surprise to them too. ( )
