"This is a series that gets better and better! I liked the first book, but it wasn't brag to my friends good. They have been steadily getting better from book to book. Maybe because this is one of Charlaine's earlier series and she needed to find her grove."

    " Very disappointing! Harris can do *much* better than this book. The plot is just incredibly unbelievable. Once again the Youngbloods are wasted characters and Martin is just two-dimensional. But that's not really even the worst of it! It's almost as if Harris sat down one weekend and decided to write this book without any thought or planning. "

    " The first book in the 2nd Omnibus about Aurora Teagarden picks up two years after the previous book, with Roe living happily with Martin, and Angel and Shelby their bodyguards living above the garage. A body is dumped from a plane and a series of brutal attacks follow. It's a little nonsensical and Roe is a bit annoying, especially her habit of describing every detail about what everyone is wearing, but they're quick reads and vaguely entertaining so I will complete the series.

    " This book kept me guessing until the end. Overall I liked it. Charlaine Harris has really developed Roe as a character - she has changed so much from the first book until now...which is good because I didn't care for her in the first couple of books. :-) "

    " I just had a difficult time getting into this series. I think she is trying to be James Patterson with one too many different themes going on. Stick to one or two series and make them great. "

    " What a fun, little light read. I throughly enjoyed the characters and even though this is the first Teagarden mystery I've read the fact that it is the 5th book didn't effect my enjoyment. This is a 'just for fun' read when you don't want anything meaty. "
