Ratings and reviews

Used to like her but geez she has beat the eve duncan drum to death. Can she not come up with anything new? My progression has gone from buying her hardbacks the day of release to waiting for the paperback and now she is in the group of only buy when I am at the thrift store and there is nothing else that appeals.

If you start this book I hope you are on vacation because you will not want to put it down.....

I love Iris Johanson ..
