Hannah is Back!

What a treat to have another Hannah Ives mystery to enjoy. Marcia Talley continues to be a joy to read. The only problem is having to wait for her next book!

The stars are for the book....not the ending

I have been a fan of this series from the beginning...never thought that the author suffered from 'sophomore slump' and the characters show definite development from outing to outing. The same feelings apply to Dead Man Dancing. Lots of real life Annapolis infused into the setting and Hannah is believable. My quibble with this book is the ending. I had a good idea who the murderer was (and I was right) but the last few pages were so rushed and unsatisfying! After re-reading the final 2 chapters for a fourth time I almost think that the author had an ending a and alternate ending b in mind and somehow managed to mesh bits and pieces of both endings in the final (unsatisfying) edit. You won't be disappointed with this latest in the Hannah Ives series, but in my opinion, the ending doesn't do justice to the rest of the book.
