Kept me guessing right till the end.

Lots of characters, so a bit tricky to keep them all straight in the beginning. (I had to take notes!) But well worth it.

It was easy to connect with most characters, even the ones who turned out to be monsters.

I don't know if I got a crappy copy or what, but it was full of typos and other mistakes. It seemed like the author just gave up on any sort of proof reading after page 90.

Anyway, that's not why the 2 stars. The dialog was confusing, hard to follow, and just basically abnormal for a forensic pathologist. New characters were introduced way late in the story. There were only 169 pages and they were spaced out like a children's book. At normal type, this would have been little more than a short story.

I wanted to quit long before the end, I just didn't care about any of the characters. I only finished so I could write this review.

I doubt I'll read any more Patrick Logan.

Freida has become my favorite author. She never disappoints.

Freida does it again. She's amazing.
There are a few loose ends but I actually love that she doesn't feel the need to explain every little thing. Great finish.

The first half was awesome. Then end...eh.
Things were well wrapped up with many pages left, so it kinda felt like it went on too long.

Clever story, a littile hard to follow at spots due to the British phraseology.

Slow start. I enjoyed book 1 more.

An overall good read

Pretty good. Clever plot and multiple plausible scenarios Seemed like a rush to finish though.

I rarely give anything 5 stars. This book is worth the read. Great character development. Unpredictable ending. I enjoyed it enough to look for more books by Leslie Wolfe.

Not bad. I'd really go 3.5 if I could. Better than most 3's I've read but not as much as the 4's.
It felt a bit like a script for Magnum PI or Perry Mason. Multiple attempts on her life and she miraculously survives them all. Eh, a little hard to take.
For book written in 2006, the references to a phone book and an answering machine seemed dated.
The main character. Gabby, was fun and relatable. I'll read then next in the series, just not yet.

I only read this because of the unending cliffhanger that was “Flawed”.
Where Flawed was plausible and interesting, “Perfect” was unbelievable and annoying. I felt like I was reading a Scoopy-Doo script. One ridiculous predicament after another and miraculously saved. The author felt the need to assume the reader wasn't paying attention, and reiterated the obvious over and over.....maybe if I were 14 it would have been necessary. Of course, we have a happily-ever-after ending too.

An interesting read. Good character development.
The biggest problem is that it doesn't end. It's a cliffhanger to get you to read “Perfect”, book 2.

There were so many nonsense or unrealistic events that I was convinced there would be a big ending...like the kid really died and Elizabeth was dreaming in a coma the whole time. Then add the writers bias against the second amendment and his over-the-top female bias and it was just too much. I actually listened to the audiobook. Had I read it myself, I wouldn't have finished it. It wasn't worth my effort.
Skip this and find yourself a better book, you'll thank me.
