Blah. Not my type of book. I was bored after the first few chapters. It was flat, the characters were not interesting.

I liked this story. The hero, Gemma is a police detective that has flaws and regrets. In other words, she's human. She has built her career by staying in her hometown and the latest case has her investigating the murder of an old classmate. As Gemma investigates she worries that a few of her high school secrets may be revealed. A well written police drama with lots of personal and local color thrown into the mix. Has all the needed elements to have Gemma return and become part of a series as she accepts the past and grows.
