Last Day | Luanne Rice
9 posts | 8 read | 11 to read
From celebrated New York Times bestselling author Luanne Rice comes a riveting story of a seaside community shaken by a violent crime and a tragic loss.Years ago, Beth Lathrop and her sister Kate suffered what they thought would be the worst tragedy of their lives the night both the famous painting Moonlight and their mother were taken. The detective assigned to the case, Conor Reid, swore to protect the sisters from then on.Beth moved on, throwing herself fully into the art world, running the family gallery, and raising a beautiful daughter with her husband Pete. Kate, instead, retreated into herself and took to the skies as a pilot, always on the run. When Beth is found strangled in her home, and Moonlight goes missing again, Detective Reid can't help but feel a sense of dj vu.Reid immediately suspects Beth's husband, whose affair is a poorly kept secret. He has an airtight alibi--but he also has a motive, and the evidence seems to point to him. Kate and Reid, along with the sisters' closest childhood friends, struggle to make sense of Beth's death, but they only find more questions: Who else would have wanted Beth dead? What's the significance of Moonlight?Twenty years ago, Reid vowed to protect Beth and Kate--and he's failed. Now solving the case is turning into an obsession . . .

This book simply lacked the necessary momentum to create suspense. Great premise: a pregnant woman is murdered and she had already survived a traumatic experience earlier in her life. So, who killed her? Surprisingly, this is where the story became dull. The authors drags the story on way too long while prolonging the mystery. By the time the killer was revealed, I was happy to know that the book was coming to an end. I had higher hopes...

I am being delinquent on posting my reviews on Litsy this month so I am going to do a few. This might be my first Luanne Rice book—though I have caught a few movies adapted from them back in the day. Two sisters who were locked in the basement of the family art gallery during a robbery that killed their mother dealt differently with their trauma, two decades later, one sister is killed & the same famous painting is taken. Decent thriller...

DebinHawaii ... ..I did have the ending figured out—although I had doubts about my guesses. Not a “wow” but I think it will make a good beach/pool book for genre fans.

Lunch & my desk lunch (ahi poke on multigrain rice & mango green tea from across the street, roasted seaweed sheets & tangerines). It‘s probably my last day reading this book as I am about 80% done & should finish up tonight for a book tour review on Friday. 📚🍽

Panic70 Lunch looks yummy! It‘s been decades since I visited Hawaii, but the fish was unforgettable. Live in the PNW for four decades and there is decent fish. Now I‘m land locked in Texas. Not even close to the same, but poke is popular here! 5y
DebinHawaii @Panic70 Yes, it has been fun to see poke‘s mainland popularity grow these past few years! 😆 (edited) 5y

Today‘s lunch and #soupersundays blog post is Ellie Krieger‘s Mushroom Stroganoff Soup from the cookbook tagged👇🏻 in comments. It‘s rich, creamy, vegetarian & full of delicious mushroom flavor. I think it‘s my favorite from the 3 soups I‘ve tried so from the cookbook. 😋🍄🍲Recipe link👇🏻

Here with one of my current reads for a book tour review later on this week. It‘s not bad so far but I‘m about 40% in so the jury is still out. 😉
