"Spine-tingling" appears on the front cover of this book. There wasn't a blessed thing that tingled about this book. There was absolutely NO mystery to uncover - everything was MOST predictable. This was a "love" story from beginning to end. I don't know about anyone else - but when I buy a "mystery/thriller" - I want some mystery and some thrills - other than those in the bedroom!!! I really MUST stay away from women "mystery" writers - they all have the tendency to throw in WAY too much "romance".
