This is the first Christiane Heggan book I have read. It wasn’t to bad of a story. I did have some issues. Lola Malone’s body is found. Zoe, her friends and the cops are investigating the crime. Zoe’s father; who was involved with the mob and has been thought to be dead for 30 years, is introduced into the story. You then assume Lola’s murder is going to have something to do with the mob, well it turns out the whole mob story had nothing to do with Lola’s murder or nothing to do with Lola’s killer at all. Very confuessing. I was not happy to learn who the killer was, he was a character I liked from the start of the book. I didn’t like what happened to Zoe’s father, I think they deserved to have a chance to get to know show more each other again. I thought the climax was weak, but I did enjoy the conclusion. show less
