On the whole I enjoyed this book. I stayed up till 3 AM reading. But for part of the book I was really irritated with Bridget for not talking to her husband and preventing all this pain. I guess I can't imagine a relationship where spouses don't talk but I know they exist. Bridget decides to take dinner to her husband who is working late and sees a beautiful woman coming out of his office. She immediately assumes he is having an affair. Instead of confronting him, she drives around aimlessly, returns home and puts the dinner in the refrigerator. When the woman's body turns up, of course it was her husband that killed her. Then her kids get drawn into this. If this family ever talked and spent time together none of this would have happened. But then we wouldn't have a book. Luckily their communication skills improve by the end of the book and the characters develop into real people. The development of this mystery was most satisfying and the style of writing was highly readable. Thanks to the author and BooFunnel for allowing me to read an advance copy of this book . I plan to read more of her work. ( )
