Naomi talks to her, and weirdly the two of them feel a strange bond – both of them had trusted this guy, and he had been lying to them both. There, a woman is sitting on a park bench… a woman Naomi recognizes as her dead boyfriend’s wife. Full of rage, at the last minute she realizes she can’t actually go to the service, so she just keeps walking, right into Central Park. Except when he died she found out that he had actually been married the entire time. Naomi is on her way to a funeral when the book opens – a funeral for her boyfriend.

This series begins with a premise that sounds like something I wouldn’t read, but somehow makes it work. They were perfect for reading in between my batch of 87th Precinct books. These books have been on my radar for a while, so when I saw the first one on Book Outlet for only a few dollars, I snatched it up and checked the other two out of the library. Wow, it’s December and I’m still reviewing books from October!!! HA! Okay, new goal… to be caught up before 2021! :-D The Aroma of Books //Rants//Raves//Reviews// Pargeter, Edith (also writing as Ellis Peters).
