Yet now, with a new book, I worried whether it was be as good as the past books were and would I like it as well. All of the emotions were raw an First Sentence: All of the emotions were raw and rang absolutely true. Hornsby did an excellent job of giving new readers the backstory of the characters, without it being too much for previous readers of the series.

The information about putting together a documentary film was fascinating, but not overwhelming. All the characters were well developed and realistic; bad guys, good guys and all those in between. The characters really do drive the plot and she made me really care about them. She so captures the feel, people and problems of Los Angeles. I loved that the ending was not predictable. This was, for me, an excellent book.

I hope we see the next Maggie MacGowen book very soon.
