Locked In-- Book Review

Shot in the head by an unknown assailant, San Francisco private eye Sharon McCone finds herself trapped by locked-in syndrome: almost total paralysis but an alert, conscious mind. Since the late-night attack occurred at her agency's offices, the natural conclusion was that it was connected to one of the firm's cases. As Sharon lies in her hospital bed, furiously trying to break out of her body's prison and discover her attacker's identity, all the members of her agency fan out to find the reason why she was assaulted. Meanwhile, Sharon becomes a locked-in detective, evaluating the clues from her staff's separate investigations and discovering unsettling truths that could put her life in jeopardy again. As the case draws to a surprising and even shocking conclusion, Sharon's husband, Hy, must decide whether or not to surrender to his own violent past and exact fatal vengeance when the person responsible is identified (goodreads.com)

This is my first time reading a Sharon McCone Mystery. There are many different points of views told through out the story.



Sharon becomes locked in after a incident at the pier. I love that this story takes place in the bay area. I can relate to this because this is close to me and I have visited San Francisco numerous times. This book did take a while for me to get into, and I think that's to all the different characters I was meeting for the first time. It was great that the book recapped on previous books , so that a new person reading the book could understand what character has been through.



This was a good mystery and it all plots all came together . I liked that it was a team effort and that I grew to like the characters and have decided that I want to read more of Sharon McCone.



I give this 4 out 5 stars.
