Goodreads review by Christiane

Love Carlotta - wish there would be more ... Love Linda Barnes crime series centering around independent red headed, tall, athletic, hack driving - crime solving Carlotta. I have read and reread all of the books in the series and wishing for more. This short story is a nice appetizer for great things......more

Goodreads review by Ayme

If I had read this short story first in the series before all the other novels, I would have liked it more. But following Lie Down With the Devil, this story is just okay.......more
