This was the second Lisa Scottoline book for me to read. The first was Look Again which I couldn't put down. I found this book to move very slowly. It was divided into three books within the one. Book one and two moved so slowly I almost gave up reading it several times. However, once I got to book three, I couldn't put it down. She saved all the action for the end. Upon completion, i can say it was well worth sticking with it.
