Definitely not qucik

To be totally honest I struggled to finish this book which would have been a shame because by the end it had gotten a lot better. It was just too slow, I know you have to set the scene but there was too much information that had nothing to do with the mystery and a lot of love life drama that didn't come to anything, the murder didn't even happen until about half way through the story. I liked the nuns and the humour they inadvertently brought to the story but not sure how I felt about the main character, who I took a while to warm to and you never would have known she was a professor as she hardly silent anytime feathering to busy going to sports games. The mystery was good when it got going and in fact you ended up with two dead bodies and a missing person to investigate but that is only if you stick with it. Not sure if I will jump straight back into this series though.

Alison while doing community service at a local church, serving food to the needy, she makes friends with a family. Wanting to help them she hires them to decorate her lounge, the father is a hard worker but the nephew seems less inclined to work and she isn't surprised when he doesn't return after lunch. She is surprised when his uncle who is missing a green card then to her for help in finding him. Her cop boyfriend know all about the boy, as he helped pull his body out of the river. Even though it's know become a murder enquiry Alison can't help but get involved. Can she help her friends by finding the killer? Especially as the uncle while carrying out his own investigation goes missing. It gets even more complicated when another body connected to his work place is discovered and the FBI get involved.
I liked the narrator. She gave each character there own voice.
