OrangeReviewStar"Nothing fuels hate like love gone wrong," and people naturally suspect Jody Curtis when the local high school coach is found dead in a suspicious car crash. After all, everyone had seen her trying to get Fowler's attention at the bar every night. It was no secret that she adored him a decade ago when she was in high school and he was her coach. So, Jody's big sister, prosecutor Anna Curtis, comes back to town to support Jody and defend her from wrongful prosecution. But as the evidence begins to mount against her sister, who will only say, "I didn't do it," Anna begins to question everything about the situation and the idyllic town she once knew so well.
VERDICT Leotta (Speak of the Devil) spins a delicious tale of suspense that will have readers hurrying to find out what happens but at the same time wanting to savor each page. This highly entertaining thriller shouldn't be missed.
