Why read it?
1 author picked Family Secrets as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This mystery had all the elements I enjoy—a strong female lead who becomes the village sheriff, a mix of interesting and well-developed characters, a quaint but unusual village— Whispering Pines—that made me long to be there, a good mystery, and a dog as a sidekick.

From Rhonda's list on mysteries with strong flawed female protagonists.
