Lowell (aka Ann Maxwell) begins her latest romantic suspense with a murder. U.S. Senator
Andrew Jackson Quintrell III, the patriarch of a prominent family is dying, but evidently
not fast enough because someone slips into his room and commits murder.
Carly May is a genealogist hired by Winifred Simmons y Castillo. Winifred wants her
to so some family research on the women of her family. It seems the family has many
legitimate and illegitimate members. Dan Duran is one of the children born on the other
side of the blanket. Dan helps Carly with the research but eventually becomes a bodyguard
-- and a target when Carly's life is threatened. A hostile relationship between the two
turns to moral support as it all becomes even more dangerous. Dan knows there is a secret;
he's just not sure what it is. Carly's skeleton shaking is about to bring it to light.
Can the family handle it? Will Carly and Dan survive it?
Lowell delivers another interesting suspense. The suspense is skillfully delivered
throughout the twist and turns. The only thing I found irritating was the multitude of
verbal insults about the Quintrell family's adulterous anatomy. If you like suspense mixed
with a bit of passion and romance, you'll like Always Time to Die.
Maria Tucci narrates the audio version. Her reading style adds to the romantic charge
between Carly and Dan. Ladies pass this one around
