The Yellow Lantern

I feel like Angie Dicken is really hitting her stride as an author with this one! The symbolism with the yellow lantern is deftly woven into the story and Josie's peril is so vividly portrayed. Of course I suspected a great deal of what happened at the end as far as who some of the players were, but the final crimes I didn't really see coming because I didn't think they would be quite that bold. Whew!

The romance in the story is chaste and secondary to the story of Josie's peril and the other crimes in the story. I was glad that it didn't end up overshadowing the mystery and that the suspense carried through the story so nicely.

I'll definitely be reading more of this story as well as the next book this author writes.
