Series: Jazz Ramsey #1
Too much fluff and reads as a young adult novel.
Jazz Ramsey has recently lost her tracking dog Manny and has agreed to help with the training of a new cadaver dog. Knowing that a building would be available she sets off for a night of training when what Luther, the new pup, finds is more than the tooth that Jazz had planted.
Turns out that Jazz knows the woman. Florentine “Florie” Allen had graduated a few years before from the private school where Jazz works. Currently, Florie is a struggling art student and though people change, Florie looks nothing like the girl Jazz remembers.
This is where author Kylie Logan begins to through everything that she can into the story. Arguments with old classmates, costumes, upcoming festivals, blackmail, personal relationships. But the sad thing is, the final “gotcha” was no surprise. Early on it made sense what Florie was up to since it is a well-used plot line.
There is also a romance if the redundant narrative doesn’t suit you, but that too is tired and clumsy at best.
