MY THOUGHTS AND BOOK REVIEW
The unputdownable story where detective Ebony Jones is involved in a mystery case when she was assigned where a guy went missing as a strong storm popped up while he was kayaking on the Hudson River in this novel Queen City Crimes series. Ebony is shocked to learn that the missing kayaker is Kyle Emory, the ex-boyfriend of Ebony's estranged best friend, attorney Jessie Martin, and they have a daughter, Lily. Ebony has another surprise for Jessie, who has now been reunited with her true love, Judge Hal Samuels: Kyle is engaged to Olivia Vargas, a much younger social media personality. The novel is all about police procedures, finding, and investigations done by Ebony to first ascertain whether Kyle is missing or deceased; if he is deceased, will she be able to determine whether his death was accidental, suicide, or murder?
If Kyle is murdered, those suspects that Ebony will have, include Olivia, who is now entitled to half of Kyle's life insurance benefit; Olivia's debt-ridden brother, Auggie; and Olivia's current husband, Raul Esperanza, whom she hasn't yet divorced.
The author has a well-paced story with fantastic characters and a difference including many twists. Tension builds up as the strong characters make this novel very outstanding. Totally gripping crime novel which can be read as a standalone.
