I loved this book, as well as it‘s predecessor, Missing Presumed, for its mordant wit — a much-loved quality by me — as the self-aware protagonist touches on her own insecurities and shortcomings. Put that together with a murder or two and I‘m a yuge fan. I‘m so looking forward to the next installment in this detective‘s story. I do agree that these would be better read in order, as I saw another reviewer say, and I liked the second book best.
