Book Review: Murderous Means (A Southern California Mystery) by Lida Sideris

 

Blurb:

Corrie Locke may not be the best rookie lawyer in town, but when it comes to catching a killer, let’s just say, she’s got enough skills to bring a band of shifty-eyed suspects to their knees.

When the wealthy matriarch of the dysfunctional Means family dies in her sleep, Corrie’s hired to prove the death was anything but peaceful. Problem is, the only evidence she has to go on is a half-baked psychic vision that the matriarch was murdered. To put the matter to rest, Corrie sets her sights on proving the psychic's a fraud. After all, everyone knows psychics are crack-pots. But what should be a simple investigation morphs into something deadly.

The deeper Corrie digs, the more bizarre truths are revealed. Tempers and temperatures rise as she trails a cunning killer who will do whatever it takes to shut the investigation down before the real truth comes to light. It's up to Corrie to catch a killer… who's about to strike again.

My Review - 4 of 5 stars - 

Full of twists and turns, friends and suspects, half truths and more. Corrie was asked to prove a death was murder based on a "psychic" comment. She found more than she bargained for, struggled through the clues, and worked a way to the solution. I enjoyed the witty conversations, friendly companionship, and sleuthing. The story was a little long, but overall, this was a good story.

I received a copy through Goddess Fish Promotions, and this is my unsolicited review.
