Hart does a great job of plotting this mystery, and of giving the reader a true sense of the city of San Antonio (my home town). I was caught up in the story quickly, and still able to enjoy the details of the art gallery business and of the city. I particularly liked that Henrie is her own woman. She’s smart, thinks on her feet, is a creative problem solver, and takes matters into her own hands rather than rely on a handy male to save her. Still, Hart writes her exploits consistent with her age and condition. She can’t go “mano a mano” with the bad guy, but she can verbally spar and use her intelligence to outwit or confuse or obfuscate. I think I’ve found a new mystery series heroine to follow.
