It was unsolicited so I didn't really make time for it - I'm still deciding if I want to read it. I don't read nearly enough mystery or suspense novels, and I'm intrigued for sure. The amnesia aspect of the story isn't one that I like usually, but it works well in a mystery novel. We'll see if I can squeeze this one in!<br /><br />Great review, Carole. =)<br /><br />Alyssa @ <a href="http://eaterofbooks.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">The Eater of Books!</a>Alyssahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00128004483437247740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2875242362336197892.post-55476266192439551132016-06-14T20:57:40.643-05:002016-06-14T20:57:40.643-05:00I really need to read Jennifer L.
