First, don't be shocked. Yes, I'm reviewing fiction. For those of you who have subscribed to these newsletters, my name is usually listed with nonfiction reviews. Don't worry, it's only temporary.
I guess you're wondering how I discovered this book? I signed up for a professional webinar and Nina Simon was a special guest. As she spoke about the process of writing her first novel, I knew it was time to read fiction again. And why not a murder mystery.
Speaking of process, don't forget to read Simon's notes at the end of the book. The backstory was quite complimentary to this story.
Sidenote: I also loved reading this one because of the setting. It's set in Monterey Bay, California. I was fortunate to visit there many years ago, so many of the descriptions brought me back to that time.
Let me get to what you came for. Here's a story about three generations of strong women. On the surface, these women think they are nothing alike, but when they have to come together for support when the youngest of the three discovers a body, they discover otherwise.
Who should read this one? Love family drama and surprising endings? Then that would be you.
