This was a very enjoyable read about a small town mystery that gradually unfolds through the voices of its various residents. It was the perfect balance between an interesting story, strong characters, and a light touch of humor throughout.

Some of these characters were …more immediately likable, some not so much. But they were all "real", people that can be found in small towns everywhere, people doing the best they can to deal with the weight of past events, decisions, and regrets.

I really liked the author's writing style. I just read some great short stories on her website and hope to see another novel from her in the future. (less)
