A review by wakela
Among the Departed by Vicki Delany
5.0
This is book five in the Constable Molly Smith series by Vicki Delany. However, this is the first one that I have read. I don’t feel that I was lost or left out because I hadn’t read the first books. This can definitely be read as a stand alone book. I will be going back and reading the prior books because I enjoyed this one so much.
Vicki Delany’s characters are vibrant and alive. I could just picture Jamie defiantly stuffing his blanket in his sleeping bag and setting off on an adventure at the start of the story. And the imagery just kept getting better from there on out. I felt like I had a little movie playing in my head as I read this book.
The fact that this mystery was so close and personal to Molly’s just made it that much more emotional. When Molly was young, she went by her given name of Moonlight Smith. She and her best friend, Nicky, were always spending time at each other’s houses. In fact, Moonlight spent the night at Nicky’s house the night before Nicky’s father disappeared.
Now many years later, the case is reopened when his bones are found.
I found this book difficult to put down.
