I always enjoys Josh Lanyon's stories. I find his main characters to be interesting and engaging. I also enjoy the way these books have just the right balance of mystery and romance. The main characters always find love along the way and this makes for interesting reading alongside the mystery.

This took a little bit for me to get into. Not a problem with the story, just the mood I was in. As usual Josh Lanyon's writing style is amazing, when you read one of his stories you can just feel the intelligence (<-- hope I spelled that right or that's not very smart :) ) of the story and characters.
