Jennifer’s Review of Deep in Death
Review (4.5 Stars): In Deep in Death, Shelby is recovering from a gunshot wound from her previous adventures while working for mob boss, “Uncle Joey” and hoping that things will finally settle down. To distance herself from Uncle Joey, she takes on a new assignment helping a young woman find out what happened to her mother who disappeared several years earlier. Shelby soon learns that things aren’t what they seem and she needs to solve this mystery fast before she finds herself in yet another dangerous situation.
First of all, the cover is absolutely beautiful and I love almost all of the covers in this series. Deep in Death is one of those books that you can start reading and it doesn’t matter if you haven’t read the rest of the series. You are able to follow along with the action without missing a beat and I really like that about this author. I was immediately involved with Shelby and her investigation of Tiffany’s missing mother in this story, which turned out to be more than just a missing persons case. The clues started to lead to something more sinister and Shelby just happens to look like Tiffany’s missing mother and has to race against time before she finds herself as the next victim. Deep in Death is full of creative plot twists, fascinating characters and enough action that will keep you on the edge of your seat. I’m looking forward to reading the next book in the series but I want to start this series from the very beginning so I can really get to know these engaging characters.
