Right from the beginning, in the prologue, the author catches your interest and holds it until you can solve the mystery along with Teri Blake-Addison, the private investigator in this story. It was a story that really does have you wondering what happened and who are the people you can trust and

believe.

As the book cover states: "What took Ellen away from her famous husband yearly, to the cold, windy coast of Maine?" This is something Teri must piece together as she helps Ellen's husband find out what really happened to his wife, who supposedly died in a boating accident years ago.

This isn't a feel good romance story, but a "finely crafted novel" filled with mystery and suspense. Kept me on my toes and wanting to read the next book in this series, "The Chat Room".
