review 1: Perhaps I have become lackadaisical in regard to reading fiction. Based upon the quick and easy choices, reading something more in depth like this book takes more energy, thought, and time than I've been used to allotting to my reading. There were too many details flooding the first half of the book that were not directly related to the story line itself, which definately hindered my interest. I enjoy the characters that the author has developed in this series and the unusual teaching moments. Maybe I'm just worn out preparing for more than I'm used to during this holiday season.
review 2: This fifth volume in the Faye Longchamp mystery series takes our heroine and her partner, Joe, to New Orleans. Her archaeological work quickly falls aside after she is... more present when a post-Katrina victim's body is found. As she consults with the police and follows the convoluted family dynamics of the city another mystery is solved. I really liked the historical aspects, the insights into engineering and the interesting people we meet -- from archaeologists, to authors, to engineers, to police officers -- the characters are CHARACTERS. A fun read! less
