[Kitty Tomlinson · Rating 3 out of 5]

Ben Harvey is released from prison eight years after being incarcerated for raping Laura Shay. DNA testing provided his release. Interesting.

[Ronald Wilcox · Rating 5 out of 5]

Enjoying this series a lot. The combination of the sharp police detective paired with his elderly female friend who he bounces his cases off is charming. The mystery of this novel was also absorbing and well spelled out
