Happy Never After by Kathy Hogan Trocheck 6 of 6 people found the following review helpful. 5.0 out of 5 stars Fun, fun, fun, June 27, 2005 By Patricia Tryon Amazon Verified Purchase(Whats this?) This review is from: Happy Never After : A Callahan Garrity Mystery (Mass Market Paperback) Snappy dialog, whiz-bang action sequences, and a lovably flawed heroine: a perfect recipe for a fizzy, frothy concoction of mystery and pop music business primer. The first tier characters have plenty of sizzle amongst themselves, but things really shine when the supporting cast shows up for a birthday party or a housecleaning expedition. (You dont want me to say more than that, truly.) Dialog sings, not only as entertainment but also in actually advancing the plot. I learned to pay attention through my giggles and sighs; the plot was moving on. This author writes hilarious vignettes that evoke everything from the slightly soused country club golfers to the fear and loathing of staking out a boyfriend who might be sleeping with his ex-wife. The most far-fetched circumstances are related with such a light touch that it is easy to suspend disbelief. Put differently, you wont believe what youll believe in this story. For the most part, the various threads are tidied up by the end of the book. I admire and appreciate the fact that the author did not force a happy ending for everything. Altogether this was a satisfying and delightful read. amzn.to/PSMs99
