Spotlight on No Time To Breathe

Journalist Lisa Jamison wants to blow off some steam after an argument with her boyfriend, so she heads to her friend Ricky’s kickboxing studio for an early morning workout. She expects to find Ricky alone, setting up for his first class of the day, but someone was there before Lisa, uninvited. Ricky is dead, shot only moments before she arrived, and now Lisa is a suspect in his murder. Lisa wants two things: to clear her name and seek justice for Ricky. But the deeper she digs, the more the danger mounts. Can she find Ricky’s killer before the killer eliminates the last obstacle, silencing Lisa for good?

Review:

When Lisa goes to the kickboxing studio for a workout, she finds the owner dead.  Ricky was her friend and she cannot think of a reason somebody would kill him.  But someone did kill him and she will have to figure out who.  She is a suspect in his murder and she knows she did not kill him.  She will have some help from her boyfriend and her friend Dorothy.

The author is very talented in her descriptive writing and these descriptions pulled me into the story from the very beginning. Throughout the whole book there was a certain tension and suspense that I felt when I was reading.  The mystery was well plotted and had me engaged page after page.

I would highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a well written mystery.  These books are very good.

I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book provided by the publisher, Level Best Books, and NetGalley, which I greatly appreciate.
