Reena Hale was born to be a police and/or fire investigator. She had mystery in her life from a very young age. The way Nora Roberts put Reena’s life together combining her investigative skills and her personal and family life, has produced a fantastic story that you will not want to take away from your eyes. You might even start looking around for fire! I do think the reader can smell the action all the way through this great story.

If you like mysteries that combine fire and arson, police work, both personal and family love life, and non-stop action, you will love Blue Smoke. Reena lost many friends and acquaintances in this story. This alone will make you take stock of your life as it compares with hers.
