First Julia Spencer-Fleming novel that I have read but will not be the last. Characters you can care about and a story line that pulls you in from the very first sentence. "It was a hell of a night to throw away a baby." Don't know about you but that...more

“Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.”
