Gerald R. (pompton lakes, NJ)

Disappointed
After having read eleven previous Laura Lippman books I eagerly looked forward to this one. I was sadly disappointed. The story went nowhere and was filled with characters I cared nothing about. There were a few mildly interesting "Stand by Me" moments during flashback sections, but there was virtually little that happened. Tess Monaghan appears in about five pages and has hardly any bearing on the story. I have read some of Lippman's other stand alone novels and they were far superior. Bring back Tess!
