This was the first "Nora Roberts" book I read. I have to say, it's pretty gory compared to her other works. Other than that, it's the tried and true story of the spunky heroine coming back to face her haunted past. Oh, and there's devil worship.

"Emma Straub and I went to high school together and there must've been something in the water! This is a great, true to life New York story taking the reader from college to midlife crisis. Filled with real life relationship issues — family, romance, humor! A great read!"

Arguably Joanna Harris’s best novel. She gives us a very compelling story that - while not being a true mystery novel - has enough twists to make any mystery genre lover very happy. You can read my full review here https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2015/02/24/best-served-cold/
