This is an Ales Delaware novel. He's usually a consistent character and he's likable. The story is basically about a couple of connected people (friends or relatives) who are shot to death and a mysteriously disappeared new mother. I don't really understand why all the killing, even with an explanation. How the f* would any likely father KNOW his child was with these killers? I think literally over-kill. The couple and their nasty daughter obviously went overboard and are psychos. Who in their right mind would let these adults adopt a baby (aforementioned nasty daughter)? Their adopted daughter is the girl who was going to pretty much torture the baby in the future once mommy was killed and what the heck did they keep her alive for anyway? Senseless.
There was a spot of blood in one of the disappeared person's house that belonged to her now dead sister. It was O positive, not proof AT ALL. Why? Cuz the sister could share blood types which they usually do. PLUS O Positive even O negative are so common no one can really prove where it came from so if they hoped to use that as proof the killer was in both places it's not very good evidence in a court of law or in a mystery novel. Should have used AB negative or something.
I did basically enjoy the read, so find it at the library.
