Editorial Reviews

"I have read the whole series so far and these books are my favorite! The plot is great with lots of different ways things could have gone. Rachel is my favorite character along with the regulars!! Can't wait for the next one....."

"Mystery read all the way until the end! I'm usually good at guessing who-done-it but not this time. Can't wait to see what the author has in store for Rachel in book 10."

"I think I actually laughed out loud after reading about the conversation in the Coral Queen's Library between Rachel and Jordon Harding! She was so flustered, which is so out of character for her! This helps to make her real and three dimensional and not always "perfect."
