Dollycas 19s Thoughts

I couldn 19t wait to get my hands on this book and thankfully NetGalley shortened that time just a bit. I love the Garcia sisters. especially Tessa! Just because she is dead doesn 19t mean she can 19t help catch a killer. This time Maddy is the only one that can see and hear her because she is the sister that is in trouble.

Again these sisters rally together, this time to find out who is framing Maddy for murder. Maddy is the newest member of the Vineyard police force but when a prisoner is murdered on her watch, with her gun, she is quickly suspended until her name is cleared. Maddy 19s sister just happens to be married to the head of the Vineyard 19s Police Department. He begs the girls to let the police handle the situation but they just can 19t keep from getting right in the middle of the investigation.

Lipperman has created wonderful characters. Maddy, Lainey, Kate, Deena and Tessa have that true sister relationship. They don 19t always get along or agree with each other but when one of them is in trouble they come together, one even from her 1Ceternal peace 1D to help. I love love the little digs they send each other and Tessa is hilarious. Maddy filters some of her words as she relays to the others what was said.

She has also written a very complex mystery, framing a cop isn 19t easy. The story is full of so many twists and turns some even get turned inside out. It was fun following the clues. There were more than a few surprises. The investigation even brings in an investigator from out of town that ends up renting a room from Maddie 26.

This story is soooooo goooooood!!!!!!

We continue to learn more and more about these sisters. I am really excited for what happens next. What or who will bring Tessa back for another visit? Only the author knows but I can 19t wait to find out!!
