Click the buy button and join the legions of fans of this quirky, laugh-out-loud series that Library Journal called "Highly recommended."Smart, witty, and fast-paced, this second Kendra Clayton novel is as likable as the first."--CrimeSpree Magazine"...a culturally specific, universally appealing, character-driven, top-rate whodunit."--Dwight Hobbes, Insight News"Angela Henry has written a delicious mystery with well-developed characters, some you just love to hate and others who tug at your heartstrings. The plot has enough twists and turns that it is impossible to guess who really did what and exactly what the real motives are. It was intriguing and thrilling and I would recommend it for those who love a good suspense tale."--RawSistaz Reviewers"Henry fills a niche that has been void since the absence of Valerie Wilson Wesley's Tamara Hayle series. Looking for a good mystery series which features an African American female sleuth, check out the Kendra Clayton series by Angela Henry."--APOOO (A Place of Our Own) Bookclub"What's most appealing about Kendra (who was introduced in The Company you keep) is that she's not actually a detective, she's an average person who manages to solve a crime by snooping around, putting herself in harm's way tohelp others. It's an endearing quality and makes the reader want to know more about her. With other appealing characters and witty dialogue, this is an enjoyable read." 4 Stars--Romantic Times Magazine
