Review: HER LAST SUMMER by Melinda Woodhall

 


A dead author found in her hotel tub. Sounded like a great story for TV reporter Veronica Lee.

 

With the various character storylines, this mystery was reminiscent of the MHC (Mary Higgins Clark) books that I’m a huge fan of.  A conman who has killed before was on the loose and was killing to keep his freedom of stolen luxury. The narrative was strong, but it was also lagging with time spent on repeated info. Sometimes I even forgot who some of these characters were. It was a pretty good read overall. I mean, I would’ve preferred not knowing the killer and then trying to figure it out during the read. As is, this wasn’t quite as suspenseful and it was kinda long. I might give the rest of this series a chance if I feel up to it. We’ll see.

 

Rating: 3 stars
