Tamara Hayle is an Ace

Tamara Hayle is a single mother and private investigator. She left the police force to pursue this career challenge.In this novel, Tamara investigates the mysterious deaths of a group of young men. These young men are being murdered, one by one with no apparent justification. The one commonality is that these young men have the same father, who also happens to be the father of Tamara's son. She wants to find out what is going on before Tragedy hits home.This investigation gives you a look at Tamara the PI, Tamara the mother, and Tamara the woman. It shows her relationships with the men in her life: her brother Johnny, her son, his father (DeWayne), her former co-workers, and they mysterious Basil Dupree. Tamara Hayle is an ace P.I. I never wanted to read mysteries, so this was bought on a whim. Valerie Wilson Wesley has done a great job with this character. I've gotten every Tamara Hayle Mystery since I read this one, although this one is still my favorite.

When Death Comes Stealing

"Someone is after my sons Tamamra." Every so often you come across a book that you can't put down. You must continue reading to the very last pages. That was the case with this book. When Death Comes Stealing by Valarie Wilson Wesely. This mystery book about murder and the race against time will keep you on the edge of your seat. Will the smart and witty dectective Tamamra Hayle uncover the mysterious murder before it takes her son? You will just have to read and find out. What I enjoyed about this book was the narrative hook. The narrative book was that form the very begining someone was murdered, but the authour never told you until the very end, there was no way for you to know the killer without reading the last pages. I also enjoyed the suspense and mystery. On the other hand, you always have something about a book that you don't like or that annoys you. The didn't I didn't enjoy about When Death Comes Stealing was the language. This book had a lot ofcursing. I think the other could have used different words in stead of cursing. I learned that you should spend more time with your family because in an instant, they can be snatched away from you by a mysterious force. I would recommend this book for anyone who is over the age of fourteen due to the fact of language. If you like mystery books, this also the book for you.

Gripping

I wasn't a mystery reader until AFTER I ran through the streets of Newark NJ with Tamara Hayle. Tamara is down to earth, smart, witty, and contemporary. Along with the savy characters, Wesley tells a pulsating story of excitement; combined, these attributes make for an excellent read.

This was a very good read.

I'm not usually a fan of mysteries, but I just could not put this book down. I loved it so much that I can not wait until I read the rest of the Tamara Hayle mysteries. I'm realy hooked. Keep up the good work.

I couldn't put it down!

I read this book in two days. Great mystery! This is a must read. Tamara Hayle is a great detective. This would be a great book for a book club
