BONNIE STEELE

Disappointing
My Book Club selected this book, but most of us were very disappointed. It had all the makings of a good plot and characters, but the fictional premises of the mystery were so contrived and didn't leave us with even wanting to see the conclusion. A model, an actress, missing diamonds, jumping out of windows-twice! Loved the art museum setting, but that didn't carry it.
