Woman in Shadow - Carrie Stuart Parks

 Woman in Shadow - Carrie Stuart Parks

She read

The first chapter of this book did not hook me; by chapter five I was all in.  However, it then turned a bit too preposterous for me.  I knew nothing about this author prior to reading Woman in Shadow, so I looked at her website which describes her writing as “ hyper-realistic”.  If you define that term as distorting or exaggerating reality, then it is an apt term.


The main character, Darby, is a forensic linguist and I did enjoy that unique perspective, as well as some of her humor.  


This was a fast, but not particularly satisfying read.
