There’s an overall mystery that needs to be solved, tons of quirky characters are introduced, and Sunshine has some old demons that aren’t buried as deeply as she thought. Like Charley, Sunshine is a kickass heroine with preternatural wisdom that comes in handy with solving cases and a snappy, sassy sarcasm that provides levity to the serious nature of the storyline. Their respective first days, at the high school and the station, are anything but boring, with the action starting right off the bat. Sunshine is also a single mother, so she and her daughter move into her parents’ guest house and try to adjust to life back in a small town. Sunshine Vicram returns to her hometown as the newly-elected sheriff (an election she won without even knowing she entered). Jones has a distinctive writing style, and you definitely see that shine through in Sunshine. I will say that there are some general similarities between Charley and Sunshine, but this new book certainly stands on its own two feet. However, when I heard that Jones had a new book coming out, I couldn’t wait to see what she would come up with next. I was a huge fan of the Charley Davidson series and a little sad to see it come to an end, even after thirteen books.
