I couldn't put it down -- Katy Watson, author of THE THREE DAHLIAS
Janice's books are always such a treat and this one fully lived up to expectations. She has such a brilliant ear for the quirks of her fellow humans. Terrific, and as usual I failed to predict the twist -- Emma Curtis, author of ONE LITTLE MISTAKE
