Book & Review Forums: Promissory Payback
Well crafted and relevant in today's world

It was nice to see Laurel Dewey deliver a longer story because it reminded me of how her novels flow. This one had well crafted characters in the suspects of the murder. That's what I love about Dewey's writing; even minor characters are given interesting personalities.
Again, it's not so much "who dun it" with Dewey's stories but the way she sucks you in and makes you crave MORE. Her writing is ADDICTIVE. Even though this had 25 installments, I kept hitting the "send me the next installment" button repeatedly and finished it in less than an hour.
I think the relevance of what this particular novella says is worthwhile considering the financial woes today. The story will hit home with a lot of people, especially the last installment and the dialogue that one of the characters says.
I can SO see Dewey's work on Film. Detective Jane Perry would make an awesome screen character that would be as memorable as any well known cop/detective in popular culture.
