Harper Fox is my favorite author. Somehow even when I start out not liking the characters much at the beginning, as I get to know them, I just love them all and I grieve when a story ends and I have to say goodbye to them. I just…this author really does it for me! I wish I'd bought "Last Line" when it was available, but I wasn't ready to read the subject matter at the time and now it seems to be in limbo. Anyway, I loved this story even though some parts of it were SO hard to read. Have you read her Tyack and Frayne mysteries? They are wonderful, really spooky and sweet at the same time. ๐
