Nalini Singh is best known for her Psy-Changeling paranormal romance series. With A Madness of Sunshine, she steps into the suspense genre where a small town in New Zealand welcomes home a prodigal daughter fighting her own personal demons. Soon after, the lone police officer assigned to the town is faced with a missing persons case which may tie into a decades old series of murders. As the two work together, secrets bubble to the surface with the potential to destroy friendships and lives. Highly recommended for all libraries to purchase.

I'm a fan of Nalini Singh's books, and this is top-notch. It's a different style from her paranormals, but it features engaging characters, and fantastic New Zealand locations..Our heroine has returned home after the death of her husband. It's a quiet small town, but 15 years ago there were three missing hikers, and their cases were never solved. Now a local girl is missing.... This starts the drama, and it is a fantastic read. We get the small town details, the people who have know each other since childhood, and the small town gossip. Highly recommended!
