" This mystery book was a good read. I don't know what it was but I liked the way the story was written and the facts revealed. The deaths and parts of the story line are a little depressing but it's good to get emotional!! :) "

" Was it murder, suicide or an accident? The story starts with a single mother seeing a neighbor appear to fall out of the sky. Another British crime story that pulled me in enough that I wanted to get to the end to see who the culprit was. A fairly quick easy read. "
