    The annual Historical Romance Writers of the World convention in New York City is calling to Jacqueline Kirby, a Nebraska librarian who desperately desires some excitement. But all is not love and kisses at this august gathering of starry-eyed eccentrics and sentimental scribes. As far as Jacqueline is concerned, the sudden "natural" death of a gossip columnist seems anything but.

    Laura says: "The Perfect Package - Great book, great narration."

    Just thought that this being the last Vickie Bliss book, it would go out with a little more excitement. I had really been looking forward to this book and was somewhat dissapointed. Still love Vickie B and her boss. He is truly a hoot.

    Daughter of a cold, controlling mother and an anonymous donor, studious, obedient Elizabeth finally let loose one night, drinking too much at a nightclub and allowing a strange man’s seductive Russian accent to lure her to a house on Lake Shore Drive. The events that followed changed her life forever. Twelve years later, the woman now known as Abigail Lowery lives alone on the outskirts of a small town in the Ozarks. A freelance programmer, she works at home designing sophisticated security systems.

    Maha Bali says: "not great, not terrible"
    "Good story, could have made a great trilogy."

    What made the experience of listening to The Witness the most enjoyable?

    Great storyline with good characters - would like to have seen the mother receive her comeupance and a few more details in the time Liz/Abigail was hiding from ages 17 to 28.

    Wow, what a book with all the research done to be able to set it in a period of time with all the nuances of each person and environment. Laurie R. King is truly an artist and love listening to Mary and her experiences with Sherlock. Not just anyone could spin such tales to continue to interest us in the continuing life and times of Holmes and then to add Mary with all her past and future. Just keep'm coming.
