review 1: A new one by one of my favorite authors. We start out in Great Barrington, MA with a young woman who comes back to the home she left on graduating high school to find a book that her mother requested from her hospital bed. She has been supporting herself at a local diner and has had little contact with her mother since leaving then home and when she goes to the house she finds it in disrepair and inside a hoarders nightmare. No water, no power and trash everywhere. Finding the book her mother asked for she discovers something, and looking further even more but it is also the beginning of her own nightmare as she finds herself on the run to Bisbee Arizona to find her estranged brother. Back in Bisbee Sheriff Brady is having her own troubles when longtime resident, disabled... more man an friendly face at the local eatery turns up missing overnight. The search finds him dead, having fallen down an abandoned mine shaft. Accident or murder, it is unclear and the ME is out of town for the weekend. Eventually the two threads converge with unexpected revelations.
review 2: I enjoy the Joanna Brady books. She deals with many of the problems of women today by balancing her work and family. I think everyone wishes for her husband, Butch, the equal partner. Joanna is called to the death of Junior, a mentally challenged man, well liked by the community. The case is made worse when Junior is found with several tortured animals. No one can believe that Junior would hurt animals. Also, Liza, in another state, the sister of the doctor in Bissbee, has found $147,000 after her mother dies. Her mother claimed to have no money and the child barely had enough to eat. People are dying around Liza as she makes her way to her brother in Bissbee. Great exciting, mystery. less
