It’s very layered, with suspense building as the chapters progress. I enjoyed the character of Mary, although I did think she fled Miami too swiftly before confronting Carlos about his dining with his ex. That aside, it does give her the perfect excuse to escape to Vermont where all the mystery takes place.

I loved the setting of the small town, the quirky characters, and some creepy goings on. All the characters were fun to get to know and what I enjoyed the most was all of them and the sub-plots seem to tie up together as the story progressed.

And an added bonus was Sam, the German Shepherd who sometimes seemed like Mary’s assistant. I’m glad to see that this is a continuing series with Mary so I’ll be looking for more books by Ms. Levenson.
