The streets are a dangerous place for young runaways. PI Hera Hunter knows. She's been there. So when Paperback Rose falls to her death and the police call it a suicide, Hera is skeptical. Calamity Jane, another street urchin, insists that Rose was not alone when she fell. Hera isn't sure she believes Jane since the girl's a thief, pickpocket, liar, and peeping Tom. But when Rose's parents hire her to determine what happened to their daughter, Hera soon finds that she must discover the evil lurking in her town that gives reason for pushing a child off the top of a three-story tenement house.

Well, I can only say, whew....I couldn't put the book down...and even though I was sad at the end....I know the series continues...so that gives me hope that good things are to come. That's the thing about a great mystery/suspense novel....the way the author is able to draw the reader into the lives of the characters and make them become real and viable. I love Hera Hunter's character. Tough, a bit introverted in some ways, a good heart behind a rough exterior....she has all the makings of a great heroine. Some may find some of Hera's decisions to be wrong....but I can find within me a sense of understanding her motivations. All in all...this is a really fascinating series. I love the writing style of the author, Ellie DeFarr. I look forward to book 4 with much anticipation. Highly recommended!Product details

This review originally appeared on my blog at www.gimmethatbook.com.
Thanks to the author for offering me this book for review. This is the 3rd book in the Hera Hunter series, and it’s another winner! You can see my review of Melancholy Manor, book 2, here.
All our favorites are back in this installment Toby, Gwen, Billy (Hera’s sister), and intrepid crime fighting dog Lucky. His presence adds a unique touch to many scenes and DeFarr’s wonderful descriptions of him warm my heart. His tail just doesn’t wag, it “sweeps across the bedspread”. And he always wins races down the hallway, because Hera lets him. (Don’t tell!)
We also delve deeper into Hera’s personality, as she experiences disappointment in her attempt to have a relationship. Her beau is rarely free, and falls asleep on Hera during a date. Good thing Lucky is there to keep her company.
Hera is a loner by nature, and finds her heart being tugged by the urchins of Centreville, an emotion she is not entirely comfortable with. I liked DeFarr’s broadening of the character here, as it adds another layer that complements the plot perfectly. Learning more about what makes a character tick is a joyful thing.
In fact, almost everything about PAPERBACK ROSE is done well. We see a new side of Centreville–the homeless children with their street names have their own community suspicious of outsiders, and this reluctance to share things drives the plot forward, as Hera tries to figure out if things are clues or red herrings. We see the sly humor undermining the pathos also, as Hera laments the copious use of tissues by a grieving woman. It’s a soft touch that many writers can’t pull off but it works well here.
Dirty politics rears its head also, under the guise of Toby’s brother Clement Isles, the villanous Senator. He seems to be mixed up in something nefarious (as usual) and irritates Hera by becoming a bit too familiar with her. It is rare to have a main character that is opposed to getting ahead by flirting, and Hera is a refreshing woman. Her “all business” exterior may be off putting to some, but it keeps the plot moving forward at a constant speed.
The final few pages of this book are riveting, as DeFarr outdoes herself. The intense plot twist left me shocked and in disbelief, both at the events that transpired and the significance of those events. No spoilers here, as usual! You will have to pick up this stellar book and read for yourself.
Interesting story line, but written in a less than mature style.
I am sure ready to read the other books in this series
Just finished reading "they called her paperback rose"--a hera hunter mystery. I found it to be a thought provoking who-done-it with lots of twists and turns and many "potential culprits".-------and a really surprise ending!!! Look forward to following the adventures of Hera and her adorable dog "lucky" in the next great book by Ellie Defarr-----
I have now read two of the three books in this series. The plot was very believable, the characters made sense and the action moved very quickly. Overall, this book was a very enjoyable read, with lots of action and suspense with just the right amount of detail. I will now read book 1 while I wait for the 4th book in the series.
What I like most about this series is the connection I feel with the characters. They are so well developed and whether you like them or dislike them, you definitely have some insight as to who they are. The story lines throughout the series has been so believable. Some parts are funny enough to cause you to chuckle while another brings you to tears. I was dreading the end of book three because I thought that was all there was. instead, there is at least a fourth book being written. You don't have to read the books in order but I think it would be more enjoyable. And these books were not as expensive as so many well written books. I can't wait to read the next adventure.
