review 1: I tried really hard when reading book #5 to not be so critical but now #6 has me going again.Chapter 2. Ellie is stuck behind the crime scene tape at Mitch's grandfather's house while Mitch is allowed to go inside - despite the fact that the sheriff basically took his word that he was a relative without bringing another family memeber outside to substantiate that. when Mitch returns with aunt Christine, they immediately move into the van and take her home without Ellie asking what was going on. Even if she had asked and gotten a "We'll talk later", from Mitch, that would make more sense than Ellie not even asking anything. Normal. That is what Ms. Rosett lacks in her writing. Normal.Why Ellie Avery, you are a star! You are so well known that even small town police ... moreand investigators in other states know about your investigative skills! Your ability to tie things together is immeasurable - I say laughingly. Ellie, you are the author's pawn in her own mixed up misdirected world and nothing more than a figment of anyone's best imagination. Ellie, why haven't I seen you on Nancy Grace? After reading chapter 4, all I can say is OMG! Really????$75,000 or a set of photo albums? $75,000 or a figurine? An entire house with most of the belongings or a computer? And the only one upset is Felicity? No one else in the family feels slighted? Mitch's grandfather leaves his house to his grandson (Mitch) who is in the Air Force and moves every couple years? I know this is an attempt for Ellie to "discover" something but Ms. Rosett, this is a far-fetched way to go about it. And Ellie seems overwhelmed at everything in the garage which appears to be WELL ORGANIZED. All I can do is shake my head with disgust over this poor attempt at writing.Thankfully I am finished reading this novel. Ms. Rosett cannot keep her own story straight. The premise of this one is ridiculous.
review 2: Ellie, Mitch and the kids plan a short vacation with his parents in his hometown. But when they arrive, they learn that Mitch's grandfather has suddenly died. All the family is there, but Ellie is the only one who finds things suspicious. Why did the storm break a window in his house? Why did a strange man show up at the visitation? Why are the cherished letters Grandpa Franklin had received from a childhood friend, now a famous author, missing? And why is the family pulling strings to avoid an investigation? As events pile up,l local detectives are forced to take an interest, but competition between two of them puts Ellie in a difficult place. less
