Publisher's summary

Seven years after making her escape from an abusive marriage, Dr. Annabelle Schwartzman is settling into her position as medical examiner in the city of San Francisco. Doing what she loves, she can almost put the trauma of her past behind her—until she confronts the case of a young woman, 16 weeks pregnant.

Everything about the case says the woman took her own life. As hard as Schwartzman tries to make peace with the evidence in her head, something about the case won’t leave her alone. She’s all too aware of how similar the circumstances are to her own past. After all, she, too, was once 16 weeks pregnant….

Going beyond her role in the morgue, Schwartzman digs into the boyfriend’s past, determined to find the truth behind the woman’s death, a fate she knows could easily have been her own.

No twist or suspense

Not suspense or excitement. Pretty boring to say the least. I thought there would be more suspense considering the story line.

It was ok.

It was a good story, a little slow from the start.

Unfortunately I didn’t notice that it was only 2 :30hrs long or I would’ve passed. It’s her history which is repeated in her other books. More or less a waste of a credit

This is 2 hours

I spent a credit on this. I’m unfamiliar with the series. So IMAGINE MY SURPRISE when the book ended at 2 hours in. I would never spend a credit on 2 hours. Yes, it’s my fault for failing to notice it’s not a normal book length, but I submit that should have been made clearer. The story is fine, but since I never read any other books centering on this heroine I’m pretty turned off at this point.
