There were definitely times when it did not make sense (and I don't think the problem was my reader comprehension.) I suspect poor editing. The plot stretches credibility at times. Nonetheless, it is one of the most unique plots I've ever read and was definitely entertaining. Zeige 3 von 3 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

Darcy follows the man, who is her brothers look-a-like and finds that he is associated with the new zendo and he also seems to know her family well. She hopes to reconnect with her family when she finds out that all of her brothers and sisters have been looking assiduously for Mike just like she had.
Mike is a big presence in this book and in other Darcy Lott stories, but it is an issue that never gets resolved and this is why I only gave it three stars. Darcy also makes several moves in her stunt business that could have been deadly and this is not consistent with her past way of being technically very controlled in her work. She usually plans things down to the last millisecond and here she ignores safety because some one is rushing her.
When a former friend of Darcy's is murdered the sleuthing begins and Darcy is no stranger to that.Overall I enjoyed the story. ( )
