review 1: I really liked the story. The writing was ok, but I felt that sometime things were over explained in their conversations. Like the main character would think something about one of the others, and then the other person would explain it exactly the way the main character thought it. I don't know if that makes sense. That was the only thing that bugged me. I really liked Gus, Maggie, and the other characters and the main character was believable.
review 2: As I read this book, the descriptions of the area made me want to book a flight to the MS Gulf Coast. I enjoyed the way the author pulled the Katrina disaster into her story, giving the reader a "view" into the effects of that massive storm.Charlene is a writer, one published book, and as she works on her
... more next she takes a "low-pressure" job as the manager of a trailer park. She figures it will be pretty easy work with plenty of time for writing...and it is until one of the park residents is murdered. It turns out that murder opens a whole different can of worms!She doesn't want to get involved, but Charlene gets pulled into the investigation when she herself is threatened. It doesn't hurt to have a hunky cop keeping an eye out for her safety, though. She soon finds out that there are a lot of secrets to be revealed before all is said and done.Ms. Ivy managed to misdirect me several times as the book proceeded...when one reads a lot of mysteries, that's not always easily done. Overall, this was an enjoyable read and I'll look for other books by Janice Ivy. less

It was pretty good for a free book. The plot did seem contrived at certain points.
