not worth your time
I found nothing appealing about this book. The plot development was very slow, the mystery was tepid at best, the characters were not interesting, the writing was lusterless. Touted as a "psychological mystery", it simply portrayed the characters' psyches as self-absorbed and lacking in insight, both as children and as adults.

Slow going
I've always felt you should give a book at least 100 pages to get the reader wrapped into the plot; sometimes it just takes awhile for the writer to get the pieces of the story in place. Alas, even well after 100 pages of In Search of Rose Notes the book left this reader wondering if the book would ever gain momentum. I did stick it out to the end, but it was only out of the commitment to read and review the book. This mystery simply did not deliver - the plot was slow and the characters lacked much dimension.
