Jacob Hunt is a teen with Asperger's syndrome. He's hopeless at reading social cues or expressing himself well to others, though he is brilliant in many ways.

And he's usually right. But when Jacob's small hometown is rocked by a terrible murder, law enforcement comes to him. Jacob's behaviors are hallmark Asperger's, but they look a lot like guilt to the local police.

Kat Grant and Alice Campbell have a friendship forged in shared confidences and long lunches lubricated by expensive wine. Though they're very different women - the artsy socialite and the struggling suburbanite - they're each other's rocks. But even rocks crumble under pressure. Like when Kat's financier husband, Howard, plunges to his death from the second-floor balcony of their South Florida mansion. Howard was a jerk, a drunk, a bully, and, police say, a murder victim. The questions begin piling up.

A True Mystery
I have enjoyed the previous Mommy Track Mysteries and this one as well. They are fun, interesting and entertaining. I also like the funny and sarcastic style of Walderman. One of the complaints I have had in the past about the series is that the books always seem so short. Well, Walderman makes up for it in this book. She filled a little over 10 hours with an interesting mystery with lots of red herrings. Even though the book was long, I didn't feel the need to skip ahead because I knew that if I did I might miss something important. I bought the next book, even though it is short, before I finished this one..
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
