Goodreads review says: When Laurie Moran's husband was brutally murdered, only three-year-old Timmy saw the face of his father's killer. Five years later his piercing blue eyes still haunt Timmy's dreams. Laurie is haunted by more: the killer's threat to her son as he fled the scene: Tell your mother she's next, then it's your turn . . .
Now Laurie is dealing with murder again, this time as the producer of a true-crime, cold-case television show. The series will launch with the twenty-year-old unsolved murder of Betsy Powell. Betsy, a socialite, was found suffocated in her bed after a gala celebrating the graduation of her daughter and three friends. The sensational murder was news nationwide. Reopening the case in its lavish setting and with the cooperation of the surviving guests that night, Laurie is sure to have a hit on her hands. But when the estranged friends begin filming, it becomes clear each is hiding secrets . . . small and large.
And a pair of blue eyes is watching events unfold, too . . .
A Goodreads reader says:
I know exactly to what expect from this author. A good mystery, filled with many characters and many red herrings.
She has a very unique style of writing which is pretty easy to read.
As usual, this story is filled with mystery, characters with loads of secrets which are revealed throughout the story, different POV’s which get you into the characters head.
This book had a good plot – a reality show based on reenacting unsolved murders with the actual persons involved in the case.
I found it a bit hard to engage with most of the characters – perhaps too many and a few things that just did not fit in for me.
I have been reading this author’s books through the years and I will probably read any others that she will still published. I can’t believe that she’s actually in her 80….hell, she has a damn good memory if she can still write like this.
