review 1: A light quick read targeting female readers who want to indulge fantasies of being rich enough to keep $10,000 in your trunk just in case you need it as well as rescuing stray kittens and also like to read a lot of details about shopping or fashion selections. I read it for the Bay area setting. Characters' conversations aren't always realistic and characters tend to be shallow stereotypes--doting uncle, no-nonsense businesswoman mom, computer nerd brother. The heroine is supposed to be a quirky because she is half hot blooded Latina and half old money aristocracy from San Francisco. She lives and works in Palo Alto.
review 2: Heather has created a somewhat different take on the usual private investigator storyline, by involving the whole family in the busi... moreness. All of the characters are quite believable, and you can picture each of them, maybe even relating to one or more in your own family. Plus, having toured the SanFran area I can even picture some of the locations, so full marks for descriptive writing. In this storyline, however, Heather needed to create a "happy ending", so the family can carry on the business for the next adventure. As long as you keep that in mind, you will find a thoroughly enjoyable read. less
