Publisher's summary

My name is Quinn Roberts and I was murdered.

Quinn Roberts is dead, and she wants to know how it happened. She's angry, confused, and disappointed that her life is over. Most of her friends have moved on, and it seems like no one cares who was responsible. Her adult children are in shock, but their mother's death is too painful, so they do nothing.

Soon after her murder, Quinn's husband, Alec, acquires a new wife and Quinn becomes a distant memory. Only her sister, Erin, and Detective John McQuillan continue to search for answers.

But as the case stalls, the formal investigation is moved to the Cold Case division and Quinn's family loses hope that there will ever be an arrest.

Can Quinn get the justice she deserves? And, is discovering the truth always worth it?

Good book

It’s a good book, lots of good twists and turns. HOWEVER lazy writing w the use of lots of unnecessary tropes. Victim: Beautiful and captivating, EVERYONE is in love w her. *eyeroll* Husband is a textbook narcissist *eyeroll* Then the supernatural connection **EYEROLL**
It’s a decent book, just roll w the tropes.

Heavy handed

Predictable plot. Comically evil character. The only thing missing was maniacal laughter while twirling an old timey mustache.

Glad villain was prideful

Pride is one of the seven deadly sins in the Bible. Technology and pride are what lead to the villain.

I Love How the Story Was Told

I loved this book. Everything about it. Especially the way it was told. It was sad though. The characters were great. The husband was beyond evil. I was second guessing myself many times
I highly recommend!

Tried to finish

Really tried to finish this one, but just not in to divorce drama. Lost the plot at a college professor who has assault weapons in his basement.

Ok story - strange narration

The story was ok. The characters were demoted nicely. The narration was strange. The narrator over-pronounced many words… for example- extremely was ack-stremely. Seems minor but happened frequently enough to be annoying.

Unique Perspective

The perspective of a victim without a voice and great character development all around made this a great story!

Yeeesss👍

I will admit I am a bit of a critic with most books. But baby this one right here.. now it wasn’t the mystery or suspense but the fact that it stayed the course. The story was not all over the place and had you wondering what this situation had to do with it I was able to follow it from beginning to end.

Great storyline

I enjoyed both the story line and the narration. Sometimes it hard to find a book that has both.

Oh my heart

This story hit home for me not only did I lose my sister she was there for me through my own DV nightmare. This was very well written and the ending made me ugly cry.
