Book Reviews of Bleeding Hearts (China Bayles Mystery)
Book Review: Sensitive Subject Handled Well
Summary: 5 Stars
Anyone who knows anything about Texas knows how important Friday night football is to each community. Add a highly popular winning coach to the mix and you had better tread lightly before you say anything negative. That is the position China Bayles is in when the principal of the Pecan Springs High School comes to her with rumors of sexual misconduct by the beloved and revered coach.
China quietly begins to investigate the rumors and soon finds herself in a much deeper situation than she could have imagined, up to and including accusations of murder and cover-up. As disgusting and heartbreaking as this case is, China is shocked when it hits closer to home than she ever expected.
Susan Wittig Albert continues to grow as an author with every book she writes in this series. Not only does she choose sensitive subjects, but she writes with much more depth than in her earlier books. She continues to write about herbs and the goings-on at Thyme and Seasons Herb Shop while deftly mixing in the rest of the storyline. In fact, their Party Thyme catering and spin-off The Thymely Gourmet both play a part in the plot.
Albert is adept at intertwining story lines, moving new and recurring characters in and out so that readers can keep up with the storyline while also catching up with old friends.
This particular book will long be remembered for the topic and how well the author was able to make her point in a topic too many want to dismiss. This is a must read whether you are a China Bayles fan or not.
