" I'm not sure why I always pick up her books when we get them in, since they often subtly disappoint. Maybe it's that I forget that they are more like cozies than they are pitched. Also, the part about how she never explains where she is in the series plot, so you don't get filled back in on where she is with her relationships to the clearly recurring characters? No, I don't so much like that: I can't always pick titles up in strict sequence, and in this case, I'm even less motivated too. "

" Barbara Holloway has run away as she fears the commitment of a relationship with Darren and is afraid that she will disappoint him as she knows that she when she is mesmerized by a case, she forgets relationship responsibilities. Darren has been pushing for marriage so Barbara takes a 2 month vacation, traveling aimlessly. While on a deserted beach, she is approached by a 6 year old boy who drags her back to the cabin where his mother has been attacked and left for dead. Barbara calls for an ambulance and the police. When the woman takes off with the child, the police refuse to believe that Barbara doesn't know the woman or where she has gone. The in-laws asset that Elizabeth was kidnapping her son despite the fact that Elizabeth has custody and they have only seen the child a few times. Weeks later, Barbara receives a call from Elizabeth asking her to come to her hotel so she can get legal advise on what to do with some information that she removed from the files of her in-laws which would have great bearing on the prospective sale of the in-laws firm When Barbara gets to the scene, a young woman is dead. As she is calling the police, the police arrive accompanied by someone they say is Leonora, Elizabeth's friend who was raised as her sister. Barbara accepts this only to realize after she promises to help Leonora that Leonora is actually Elizabeth who is hiding from her murderous in-laws. If Barbara can't prove who is really responsible for the attack on Elizabeth and the supposed death of Elizabeth (actually Leonora), she and Elizabeth both may have very short lives. "

" First of all, I'm a Barbara Holloway groupie and I look forward to any and all Barbara Holloway mysteries. I love her father Frank and wish he'd been my dad. I love reading about how they eat (Wilhelm's characters know how to make a great sandwich and put together a formal meal). I love Bailey the private detective and the cast of characters who live in Barbara's world. This series is terrific and I'm always left pining for the next and delighted when one appears. There are things I adore about this book and things I'm not wild about (sme plot things mostly). But the bigger issues Wilhelm explores, like greed and prejudice and inequity make for a compelling read, and there's so much tension in this book that once you start reading you will not put it down. Perfect airplane book or one to help tune out the family. It's a standalone book but I'd recommend reading Desperate Measures or Death Qualified first. "

" Fun, interesting murder mystery. It has some twists and turns that you don't see coming. Not graphic or descriptive, but fast-paced and moving. "

" This is one of my favorite mystery series. "

" A Wrongful Death is my first Barbara Holloway legal thriller and I was instantly drawn to Barbara and her father, Frank. Although this book started out slowly, it picked up pace as the story unfolded. I will undoubtedly read more of the Barbara Holloway series in the future. "

" Excellently written and twists at the end take you by surprise. "

" Would have been better had I realized that this was part of a series and other books came before this. "

" Four stars for a ho-hum-type book. "

" Borrowed from library to listen to in the car. "

" I liked this book in the end but had set it aside for a while because it moves a little slow. it is a mystery solved by lawyers and their maneuvers from a legal view. I liked the family feel of the characters. "

" Fluff writing, but I'm attached to the characters. "

" The Barbara Holloway books are always good -- and good reads! "

" Good book - recently discovered this author that I enjoy. "

" Interesting crime story, but a little slow moving. "

" This is an interesting enough tale, but with only one surprise and little suspense or excitement, there is little to raise it above the norm for the genre. "

" This is my first Kate Wilhelmina book and I love it. I'll be looking for the rest of the series. "

" Oh, I -do- believe I've found another legal thriller series to feed my ongoing addiction. :-) "

" I really like some of Kate Wilhelm's books. This is not one of them. Uneven and choppy. It hardly made sense to me at times. I warned my mom against it, otherwise she'd buy it. She thanked me. "

" A fine escapist mystery, as are all in this series. "

" Not the best, not the worst Wilhelm. "

" I found it very disjointed and hard to follow the plot. I did not finish reading the book. I had to give up on it. "
