Terrific
Good action, romance, a couple goodies scenes, but while parts were very compelling, I rarely had trouble putting it down to do what needed doing. Definitely love all Karen's books, this is no exception

... news anchor for a national weekly show sort of like Dateline or 20/20
Another very different plot by Robards about a news anchor for a national weekly show sort of like Dateline or 20/20. Another suspenseful read by Robards in which you won't figure out who the murderer is until the ending. She has a nice romantic plot with her mysteries.

You don't have to be superstitous to enjoy this one!
Interesting characters (some might say a few weird ones), a good story line,a fair amount of wit, a great deal of suspense, just enough twists and turns and a little romance makes for good reading, and Karen Robards provides all of this in Superstition. I found myself reading faster and faster to get all the answers. I'm sure you will like it as much as I did.
