Ali Reynolds is in the police academy and it's quite a challenge for a 40-something woman. One night, an old aquaintence who was also a newswoman, shows up to talk to Ali. Brenda obviously has some issues with alcohol and has lost her job. She is also begging Ali to help her locate her fiance who suddenly is missing. Brenda is sure that he must be in danger. With the help of B. Simpson, Ali's boyfriend, Brenda learns that her fiance is a man who was involved with multiple women online, promising each that he wants to marry them. Brenda is steamed but Ali doesn't believe that she is capable of murder.
I love J.A. Jance and look forward to each and every book. This one wasn't my favorite. I do like Ali Reynolds but this book had too many different things thrown in. Ali is at the academy but she doesn't get a job as a police officer. Ali covers the restaurant for her parents. Ali's son and his wife are expecting twins. Ali's old friend from her blog is dying and wants Ali to come to visit. We get a little about Ali and B. Simpson. I did enjoy this story but there was too much random stuff going on. Hopefully, the next book won't be quite so scattered.
Rating - B
