It was a good book, but it ascribed far too much emotion to Spock.

This is actually the first in the Sea Shell Harbor series but I read book 2 first. Loved book 2 and while I did enjoy this first story, it fell a little flat for me. Maybe by the time Miranda Liasson reached the second in the series she knew more of the town and where she wanted to go with the characters but this first one felt one dimensional. The grandmother was my favorite character; Hadley and Tony both felt like 2 characters would cut off their nose to spite their face. Instead of ever looking for solutions they are determined to see only the obstacles.

The trial plot was very well written. The sublots about the missing girls were predictable. Overall, an entertaining, interesting book in the Alex Cross series.

Great book

Truly loved the back and forth of how deeply tied together the past and present are. Brianna is a well developed character and the backbone of the family. Once again the love and care between the characters, the rich descriptions and well paced story leave you feeling as if you should be sitting in a pub hearing a scary local story. The final battle left me feeling a bit underwhelmed. While the planning and journey to get there built well, it all seemed to wrap up so easily. Absolutely will read the series again though

Very funny book that is fiction and a comic

A little creepy but kept me reading until the very end

Picked this up at a thrift store and since Ive been on a Nora Roberts kick, I figured why not? I enjoyed the summertime feel and as always the descriptions that Roberts uses really give you the feeling of being where she wants you. Sadly though while the characters were likable and the family dynamic was lovely the "battles" each character had to overcome felt contrived. It was a great easy beach read and filled the need for a summer book but not one I'll hold on to.

Interesting perspective

I’m absolutely obsessed with this book!!
