| I really enjoyed this book. There is a wide variety of characters, and I like them all. The mystery and Carlotta's way of figuring it out and resolving it is entertaining. I love the poetry mixed in here and there and Linda Barnes' way with words throughout the book. I will be reading more in this series. | ||||

| I'm a long-time fan of mysteries, and have every one of JD Robb's "In Death" Eve Dallas series. I've been trying other female cop/PI series, but haven't found anything so far I like better, or even as much, as the Eve Dallas books. This very definitely did not even come close, IMHO. If you're a Bostonian you'll enjoy the driving into different neighborhoods with their pithy descriptions by the protagonist Carlyle. I personally got tired of the endless series of tailing cabs, nor was I much interested in Ms. Carlyle's depressing personal and romantic life. The one bright spot was Paolina, Carlyle's assigned Little Sister. She was delightful. But it's a part of Carlyle's life she keeps separate from her work life, so only limited glimpses of Paolina are shown, although the story uses Carlyle's personal commitment to Paolina as a motivation reason for solving not just the murder, but a bigger mystery involving the IRA and the Mafia. I managed to plow through the story, but none of the characters (save for Paolina) grabbed my interest. Deleting this from my Kindle and not interested at all in any further stories in the series. | ||||

| I read this many years ago, and enjoyed meeting Carlotta then. She is a unique heroine, a former cop, and a part-time cab driver as well as a PI. She interacts with eccentric, colorful cast of recurring characters while solving mysteries. I found I so much enjoyed meeting Carlotta again that I bought the next book in the series, and will buy more. | ||||

| I enjoyed the Carlotta Carlyle mystery...she is a quick-witted, smart private eye. She’s not afraid to fall back on her previous life as a cop. Story moves along and keeps the reader interested. The characters are well drawn and believable. | ||||

| First time I've read a Carlotta Carlyle book. Even though I considered Linda Barnes to be a good writer, I don't believe I will read any of the others . | ||||

| The author spends so much time describing details about every little thing. She spent more time describing everything that I lost interest soon. I tried to keep reading even though it was boring but at the half way mark I couldn’t take any more and gave up. The book moved along slow. | ||||

| Excellent book! What a great story! I love the character Carlotta, she is a tough lady! She takes on what she thinks will be a fluff case but it turns deadly. She has to use her wits and her strength to solve the case. I can't wait to read the next one in the series! | ||||

| Linda Barnes creates the sharp, powerful female protagonist that has been missing from this genre. I can't wait for more Carlotta Carlyle! | ||||

| Carlotta Carlyle, former Boston cop, works out of her home as a private investigator, taking just about any case that comes her way. When an elderly spinster, Miss Margaret Devens, stops by her home asking Carlotta to find her missing brother Eugene, Carlotta is hesitant to take the case, assuming that the man had his own reasons to leave his sister's house. Carlotta even worked with Eugene, back when she drove a cab for Green and White. But she's broke and bored and decides it should be an easy case, so she takes the job. Things get a little tougher when two men break into Miss Devens home and send her to the hospital. Suddenly, the case doesn't look so simple after all. I can't wait to read more of the books in this series. I really liked the character of Carlotta. She's very independent and handles things her own way (which is why she found herself out of the Boston police force). This was a very entertaining book that read quickly, with solid characters, and even though it is an older title, it doesn't seem dated at all. | ||||

| Wonderful mystery especially if you know Boston. There are many references to neighborhoods and land marl restaurants and other locations that are fun to read about. Carlotta Carlyle is a fun character as a woman detective. She is dating are snarky but still afraid of spiders. She is comfortable with the cab drivers and with the prostitutes on street corners. It will be fun to watch her love life grow and develop. | ||||
