If Avery Chambers can’t fix you in 10 sessions, she won’t take you on as a client. Her successes are phenomenal—she helps people overcome everything from domineering parents to assault—and almost absorbs the emptiness she sometimes feels since her husband’s death. Marissa and Mathew Bishop seem like the golden couple—until Marissa cheats. She wants to repair things, both because she loves her husband and for the sake of their eight-year-old son. After a friend forwards an article about Avery, Marissa takes a chance on this maverick therapist.

What’s happening in Acker’s Gap, West Virginia? Three elderly men are gunned down over their coffee at a local diner, and seemingly half the town is there to witness the act. Still, it happened so fast, and no one seems to have gotten a good look at the shooter. Was it random? Was it connected to the spate of drug violence plaguing poor areas of the country just like Acker’s Gap? Or were Dean Streeter, Shorty McClurg, and Lee Rader targeted somehow?

Effectively keeps you guessing wrong
Looking back, I almost stopped reading by end of the first chapter. The story seemed to drag along so slowly at the beginning that I was tempted to skip ahead to see if it got better. I am glad that I stuck with it though. The suspense and unanswered questions finally grab you and the ending makes you feel that justice was served and the good guys came out on top...even made you think that a small town in Kansas might be a good place to live.

Wow, didn’t expect this story to be what it was. Intricately weaved into a twisted mystery/suspense. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Would recommend.

Main plot was great, but...
The murder mystery pulled me in at the start, and kept me from putting it down when the cheesy , starry-eyed, bodice-ripping scenes (which were not even well written) sorely tempted me to toss it aside. The novel would have been great without them , and they detracted from the overall effect. Yes, the relationship between Abby and Mitch is integral to the story, but this was a case where less would have been more, and all of the mooning and descriptions of Mitch's broad shoulders tapering down to his narrow waist disgusted me. So unnecessary, when the plot was so exciting and kept me guessing until the very end!

I was kept interested to know what happened next, but the plot had a lot of holes, once you knew what happened. The reader was great at narrating but took me out of the story when she tried to do some of the voices.

Wish she wrote more often!!
The first book I listened to by Nancy Pickard was, "The scent of rain and lightning." It's still by far my favorite, but this one did not disappoint! She is a great storyteller and I only wish she'd write more!

The Ending
I really enjoyed this book, but the sudden ending seemed very rushed to me and a bit unsatisfactory. Would the adults really stay friends? Not in any world I could imagine. And my most troubling question that didn’t seem answer, why did Mitch’s parent as send him away? I listened to the last several chapters three times and I feel this wasn’t answered. I really want to know darn it!
