Amazon.com Review

Less than a year after solving her sister's murder in Chosen for Death, the superbly witty and decidedly feisty Thea Kozak is once again faced with murder very close to home. When the mother of her college roommate is slain near her well-appointed suburban home, Thea steals time away from her educational consulting business to investigate the crime--but not without first confronting the well-founded objections of her detective lover, Andre Lemieux. A truly unusual amateur detective, Thea struggles with emotional baggage, a deceitful employee, and even a fashion crisis as she seeks to uncover the truth. In her second Thea Kozak novel, author Kate Flora again offers up a remarkably entertaining and engaging character-driven plot that examines the intricacies of dysfunctional family life, emotional intimacy, and indivudual identity.

This review is from: Death in a Funhouse Mirror (Paperback)

I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of this book. Thea is a great character. She has personality and style. She is interesting and likable. I had no idea who really were the villains until the last few pages. I have now ordered every book written by Kate Flora.

2.0 out of 5 stars Too long for such a thin plot, April 5, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Death in a Funhouse Mirror (Paperback)

I liked Thea and the characters in her office. I found them to be interesting and believable. Thea's love interest, Andre, was less well develolped as a character and not particularly credible. The primary problem I experienced with the book was I thought the plot was quite thin and utterly predicatable. Thus, the book seemed to me to be about 100 pages too long.
