another amanda good book submitted by rjsjwilliams on June 22, 2017, 11:35am Amanda Quick is one of the pseudonyms for Jayne Ann Krentz and this is again one of her good mysteries. When dead women start "falling" in the path of Irene Glasson and she finds herself no only trying to solve their murders, but also how a note book with strange notations in it fit into the picture, and how Oliver Ward, now owner of the Burning Cove Hotel all fit into her picture, life becomes dangerous, exciting and threatening. Set in he 1930s, could the past of Irene and Oliver drag them together or drag them both down?

fun mystery submitted by jgryniewicz on July 9, 2017, 6:51pm Fun, quick-paced book. Heavier on mystery than romance, but does both well.

A Good Read submitted by sandigra on August 20, 2017, 7:43pm Amanda Quick's books are definitely full of mystery, romance and adventure. Variety of plots going on in this book. Enjoyable.
