From The Back Of The Book
Jennifer Marsh's high school reunion is truly a nightmare. Among her classmates: overweight ex-jocks handing out business cards; former cheerleaders fast becoming clones of their mothers; class beauty Sheena Cassidy, more narcissistic than ever; and bad boy Danny Buckner, Jennifer's unforgotten first love. Missing, of course, is Jimmy Mitchell, whose haunting disappearance on prom night twelve years ago remains a chilling mystery. All that's needed to make the evening a complete disaster is murder--an oversight soon gruesomely remedied by person or persons unknown. Trapped in the dangerous thick of it is Jennifer, knowing too much to suit a killer . . . and dying to remember enough to save her own life.
Review
This is the fourth Jennifer Marsh mystery and will entertain readers who have enjoyed the first three. Jennifer is a mystery novelist who has yet to get published. However, this does not keep Jennifer from getting involved in a local murder.
Jennifer is conned into going to her high school reunion by her good friend and fellow writer, Leigh Ann. At the reunion, Jennifer sees her high school sweet heart and his wife Sheena, the girl who won Danny back from Jennifer and who she has never quite gotten over.
After Danny is murdered at the reunion, Sheena must ask Jennifer for help and she is plunged into another murder that took place twenty years earlier on prom night. With Sam, her long time beau, at her side as well as the aide of her friends Jennifer must uncover the truth behind both murders if she is to put the past behind her once and for all.
The Jennifer Marsh series may not be the most in depth mystery series out there but the characters tend to grow on you. Who could resist wanting to curl up with a cute mystery about Jennifer and her greyhound Fluffy and her critque group! I really liked all the secondary characters in this story.
This is a great series to read in between the hard boiler, intense thrillers.
VERY GOOD
