Secrets at the Café: A Novel of Suspense about Family and Friendship by Susan Specht Oram – Review by Lisa Helmick
Secrets at the Cafe by Susan Specht Oram
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
This is a little mystery that revolves around a little red journal. It is a nice “who dunnit” story. I had suspicions but the author does a good job of throwing the reader off track. There is a slew of characters that grace the pages. All of them involved or suspect in this case. The story started off good but then seemed to drag a bit for me. The characters had a hard time holding my interest as the book moved along. I could easily flip several pages and still be in the same conversation between characters so I really didn’t miss anything. I have read books by this author before. One I loved and another was okay. So I figured I would give her another try. This one just did not work for me.
