Mystery was great. I liked the overall story but the Main was beyond annoying to read. She was recently replaced by a younger barbie in a marriage where she was utterly useless. Doreen, the main character, can't even make herself coffee.
So Doreen finds a body part in her backyard and it leads to the discovery of a dead body. Instead of feeling ANYTHING even resembling empathy, all she can do is complain about how all the cops in her backyard are an inconvenience to her and how they are ruining the backyard by, you know, doing their jobs. THEN she wants to ignore police advice to leave the investigation alone, she wants to stick her nose in and is very surprised when there's a gun pointed at her. She's obviously not very bright either but what can ya do.
