This is a follow up on the author's first 1930s novel, The Girl Who Knew Too Much. The heroine is Adelaide Blake-Brockton and the hero is Jake Truett. Raina, the Enright's secretary from the first novel, returns in this novel as a PI in Burning Cove. Luther Pell, the night club owner, also returns.Adelaide starts out rather meek but gains strength and confidence as the novel progresses. The first 40% is slow but the pace picks up after that and the novel becomes more interesting. Jake's past problems and Adelaide's intersect and, while spending time together investigating their past problems, they discover a mutual attraction as well as the mutual villains who are trying to kill them.While not in the top tier of her Amanda Quick novels, I did like this book. I feel that, with era change from 19th century to early 20th century, the author is still finding her feet in this new era. It's going to seem a little crazy, but I suggest that the author watch lots of old black and white movies (which are available from various internet streaming sites) for research on women's roles and 30s witty banter for her new time period.I spent my teen years in the San Francisco Bay Area watching Dialing For Dollars on KTVU out of Oakland's Jack London Square. It ran old movies in the mornings and afternoons, combined with a game involving Bay Area phone books + telephone numbers in which viewers who knew what movie was currently playing could win small amounts of money. It was during those days that my sister and I first saw all the classic old black and white movies, including Random Harvest, It Happened One Night, Bringing Up Baby, the Marx Brothers movies, Fred Astaire movies, Cary Grant movies, Pride and Prejudice (with Laurence Olivier as Darcy), and so many others. There were lots of good roles for strong women in many of the movies. We loved watching them. To this day I know more about old movies and their stars from before I was born than about current movies and stars.I rated this 4 stars because it is not quite as good as some of her older books (which are great favorites of mine) but getting closer. I am eagerly awaiting her next book in this new time period.
As always Ms. Q is technically correct which is why I'm giving this three stars. Otherwise I'm disappointed. Where is the trademark JAK wit and clever dialog? This dialog was boring and the characters leaned toward cardboard. I know it's supposed to be set in the 20s but other than a few vague references it could be any time. I'm a long time fan and I miss the things that made her books an automatic purchase. I realize authors need to grow and stretch, but this seems to be going in the wrong direction. Makes me very sad, but I might start waiting for the library copy.
I have long been a fan of Amanda Quick (pen name for Jayne Ann Krentz ) and the historicalfiction she writes. "The Other Lady Vanishes" is a new setting for her, California in the 30's. This novel is about several women with secrets in their past they have good reason to hide. And as usual there are the men who love them and would willingly give up their lives to protect them. The plot revolves around a secret drug called Daydream with hallucinogenic properties and some unscrupulous men who are wanting to control , produce and market the drug at the expense of the novel's heroines.This book is a page turner that kept me up all night trying to finish it. And just when I thought it was all done, the mystery was solved and everyone was going to get their happily ever after, Amanda Quick writes in a "GOTCHA!" surprise at the end. Wow! If you like mystery and romance novels that keep you guessing until the last page, read "The Other Lady Vanishes" You won`t be disappointed!
Like most other reviewers, I've read almost all the author's books, in all her incarnations. This is the first one where the ahem, love scenes, seem obtrusive. It felt almost awkward to go into the intimate details here. JAKAQJC wrote a well-crafted mystery that kept moving. I liked the characters and their back stories, but PLEASE, no more dead parents, at least for a while. I've also become so well-trained that i have come to expect stories to end abruptly. The end of the book could have ended at any one if the last four or five chapters, but instead came to a surprising denouement. Very enjoyable. Note: I think the crime boss is a descendent of one from an earlier novel, one who emigrated to San Francisco.
Maybe a five star but I will have to think about it some more....This is the second book by Ms Quick / aka Jayne Ann Krentz set in the 1930s with a HOLLYWOOD / BURNING COVE tie in. I liked this book better than the first one. I think the characters were developed better and I could relate to them a little more. Ms Quick did not spend so much time dealing with fashion / dress or establishing this was the 1930s but got into an interesting story line / plot right away.As a matter of fact I did not realize the book was in the 1930s pre-WW2 until midway in the book. She established the characters early in the story so you could care about them and want to know what was happening. MS Quick brought in the characters from the first book Oliver and Irene as secondary support characters ( I barely remember the first book...it was not memorable.) I am interested to see if MS Quick gives Luther Pell and Rinna Kirk there own story in the future... I found them to be interesting.There were some plot holes in the story but they did get explained during the coarse of the book. For example if I was going to hide out ... I would never pick an area I had vacationed in or had any connection with... I would move to an entirely different part of the country.... but that was just me. Then again I would never trust the jerk who was her first husband as I am not a trusting soul... and I do not have rich parents ... Why is everyone rich in modern fiction?I read this book in less than 24 hours but will probably re read the book soon as that is my habit. It was enjoyable and will recommend it to my friends for a summer mystery read....NONNIE
