Very cute again. Sometimes it dragged on a few places and I don't get her relationship with Tim who is mainly a jerk, but I love Desiree and her investigating. She has a natural self-awareness about her that makes her more "real". The meddling in her niece's love life was cute. It feels slightly unresolved with the villain for some reason, but the mystery was complicated, tragic, and interesting.
A very enjoyable read.
