5.0 out of 5 stars Good Mystery Read, February 7, 2012

This review is from: Hush (Zebra Romantic Suspense) (Mass Market Paperback)

I bought HUSH because I'm a Nancy Bush fan and I REALLY enjoyed it. I loved the long list of characters and multiple viewpoints all heading to a future point. Just my cup of tea. It's what makes a mystery great. I found Nancy Bush because of her Jane Kelly mysteries and started reading her other books too. She leans more toward characterization and her sister Lisa Jackson is more heavy on plot, but they're both on my list of favorite authors.

3.0 out of 5 stars A Complex Mystery, July 17, 2011

This review is from: Hush (Zebra Romantic Suspense) (Mass Market Paperback)

Twelve summers ago, Coby Rendell and a group of her friends gathered around a campfire on the Pacific coast and shared secrets with each other. The same night, one of their friends--a handsome boy that all the girls loved--died in a tragic accident. Twelve years later, the secrets the girls shared are still hidden and festering, and tragedy strikes again. Another accident? Or murder? Coby teams up with sexy detective Danner Lockwood--the one who got away--to solve the mystery of how her friends died. Someone resents Coby's sleuthing, however, and she may be the next "accident" victim.

The large cast of characters in Hush made the story difficult to follow at times. Every character has his or her own private drama and reason for potentially committing murder. The story reads a little like a soap opera with multiple mysteries layered on top of one another, and the plot is undeniably complex. The heroine is a smart, grounded, and courageous main character, and readers will find themselves rooting for a happy ending.
