I am a major fan of all Laura Lippman's novels - but, this one was especially riveting plot wise and her main character, as ever, complex and appealing - not easy to pull-off when that person is a prostitute and madam - no cliches here. And - her take on human nature always satisfies, in that her characters have many facets and great observations. Since I advocate decriminalizing sex-work, this novel's theme is right up my political/philosophical alley. Plus - I grew up near Baltimore - so, it's trip back home when I read her.
