Review title: CAPTIVATING, INSIGHTFUL AND FRESH Product review: Did the other amazon.com readers read the same book I did? Pamela Thomas-Graham's book was great, and I commend it to anyone who enjoys good writing and a good story.Updating the standard mystery to accomodate contemporary reality -- in this case, the existence of talented women of color in elite environments -- is bound to bring out the critics. As other reader comments on this site attest, when someone dares to tell a fresh story, offer a new perspective, and present characters that think and feel authentically, the arm-chair critics and frustrated commissars come out of the woodwork, armed as always with Capitalized Outrage. Take a chill pill, folks! I thoroughly enjoyed the mystery of A DARKER SHADE OF CRIMSON but enjoyed even more the heroine and her mind. Nikki Chase is smart, honest, ambitious and insecure -- kinda the way most of us see ourselves. Pamela Thomas- Graham is a witty, artful writer and I look forward to more books from her.
