alright... though the mystery was interesting, the character of paul seems to have taken a turn into objectifying women and wanting to overpower them for sex. for part of the story, as he was fixated on a secondary character, it became a bit of an obsession that was distracting and unpleasant to read. so... i will try the next in the series, but if this is the way paul is being written going forward, i will be quitting the series.

Two people have died in Lake Tahoe in shocking accidents. In a nearly empty parking lot, a hit-and-run driver kills probation officer Anna Meade Hallowell. High up on a jagged mountain, wife abuser Ray de Beers gets what he deserves: he's struck by lightning. Attorney Nina Reilly, hiking on a rare day off from her one-woman law practice, sees him die. So does her date, Tahoe deputy DA Collier Hallowell. Still shaken from his wife's violent death, Hallowell is hit hard by the accident. It's a bad end to a first date... and the start of a case that will test Nina's ethics and her heart.
