As a seasoned mystery reader, it’s difficult to guess where the story is ultimately going, because the authors themselves don’t really have any idea. Promising clues turn into dead ends, and red herrings abound. People die, then come back to life, only to die again. And behind all the twist and turns, there’s the story of two siblings who need to figure out what they’re doing with the rest of their life. Obviously, selling pot in their dead-end town isn’t going to cut it much longer.
I am a big fan of Lutz’s Spellman Files series, and her quirky sense of humor really holds this story together. I loved the wild ride, and anyone who has enjoyed the Spellman Files should go out and get this book.
