Customer Reviews

Fine form

Excellent combination of mystery, comedy, romance and drama -- with a touch more realism than is comfortable, perhaps. Readers who have followed Lydia and Sgt. Larry Jackson through the course of the John Lloyd Branson series will be pleased as well as surprised at the turns their development reveals. Enjoy!
