Book Nook: I'm Still Here

Quinn Roberts is dead – and wants to know how it happened. Most of her friends have moved on and it seems like no one cares who was responsible. Her adult children are in shock -- their mother's death is too painful for them to take action.

Soon after her murder, Quinn's husband acquires a new wife and Quinn becomes a distant memory. Only her sister, Erin, and Detective John McQuillan continue to search for answers. As the case stalls, the formal investigation is moved to the Cold Case division and Quinn's family loses hope that there will ever be an arrest.

I had a chance to review a copy of this book, called I Never Left. It was intriguing, and managed to pack a lot of little issues in the story - red flags of abusive relationships, mental health, and the murder mystery itself. Told alternately in third-person and first-person, it makes for a very quick read - at least for me it did. I didn't want to put it down, telling myself "just one more chapter" over and over again. If you like intriguing mysteries, this one can be a great read.
