Mystery you say? Yes mystery, I know most of my reviews tend to be about fantasy or sci-fi, but I read other genres as well! I love a good mystery, but I tend not to read them as often because there are way to many poorly written mysteries out there, formulaic and way to easy to solve ahead of time!
This was one of the good ones. It has a twist in that the main character, Connor Westphal, is mostly deaf. This leads to all sorts of interesting complications that most people don't face. I've always been fascinated by the deaf community, so I loved that particular twist!
Connor is not actually a detective, she's a newspaper owner, but her keen investigative mind leads her to conclusions that the local police sometimes miss. In this book she's investigating the death of a woman who had put a mysterious ad in her paper, and then died the next day. Before long we have more dead bodies, missing jewelry, and Connors managed to get her self in a world of trouble! How does it all work out? You'll have to read the book to find out!
