Angelina Bonaparte
is a divorced, middle aged, confident, street-smart private investigator. After
leaving her cheating husband, Angie worked hard to start a new life and a new
business. She adores her grown children and grandchildren, but helping people
is her passion. Angie’s current client suspects her husband of cheating, but
when he is accused of murder in the death of his mistress, his wife, her
client, asks Angie to help solve the crime. With the help of new and old friends
and two police officers, Angie is hot on the trail. As suspects mount and the
closer Angie comes to the truth, things start to get dicey. Can Angie solve the
murder before she becomes the next victim?
I absolutely
adored Angie’s character. She was sassy yet sweet, confident yet unsure of
herself as a woman, she had real life issues about men, her looks and her life.
She was real! I could relate to the middle-aged dilemmas that she had, and I
think it strengthened her character. I also liked her Italian background and
how her Papa with possible mob ties took care of her. Again, it added to her
story and her character. The supporting characters were diverse and well
written. I did like the chemistry between Angie and the Detective. I look
forward to seeing how their relationship grows and to see what is next in store
for Angie in the next book. Thank you to Nanci Rathbun for the book in exchange
for my honest opinion. A great read and a solid five stars friends.
