A great detective's young assistant yearns for glory, but first they have learn to get along in this delightful feel good mystery.

Olivia Blunt doesn't want to be an assistant detective for the rest of her life. She's determined to learn everything she can from her mentor and renowned investigator, Aubrey Merritt, but the latter is no easy grader.

After weeks of fielding phone calls from parties desperate for the world-renowned detective’s help, a case comes across Olivia’s desk that just might be worthy of Merritt’s skills. On the evening of her sixty-fifth birthday party, Victoria Summersworth somehow fell over her balcony railing to her death on the rocky shore of Lake Champlain. She was a happy woman—rich, beloved, in love, and matriarch of the preeminent Summersworth family. The police have ruled it a suicide, but her daughter Haley thinks it was murder.

Merritt is ever the skeptic, but Olivia believes Haley. Plus, she’s desperate to prove her investigative skills to her aloof boss. But the Summersworth family drama is a complicated web.

Olivia realizes she might be in over her head with this whole detective thing... or she might be unravelling a mystery even bigger than the one she’d started with.

Great narrator and good story. The editor should have lopped around two chapters off though.

Good story, but could have been shorter.

I really enjoyed how Liza Tully used the two main characters as different voices. It seemed like the detective was my analytical approach to solving life's riddles, and the assistant was my emotional side. Whenever I found myself trying to solve the case while reading, one of the characters would ask the question I was thinking. It is brilliantly written and kept me on the edge of my seat (or step as I listened to it while walking). It needs to be the start of a series...please!
