What do you like about this book:
Jennifer is a 14 year old heiress who lives with her paternal grandmother. Nine years ago, Jennifer lost her twin sister to what was determined to be a hiking accident. Jennifer is not convinced it was an accident. She tries to hire Owen McKenna, a local PI, to investigate. Because of her age, Owen is reluctant. However when he is convinced Jennifer’s life might be in danger, he pursues the investigation.
If you enjoy a good mystery, this book is for you. It is full of adventure and kept me guessing. I also enjoyed the setting of the story. I also appreciated the relative clean nature of the book. There were only a few curse words and there were no graphical scenes. There was, however, a fair amount of violence. I would recommend this book to anyone who can tolerate a moderate amount of violence in a good mystery.
