This book was an extremely good murder mystery! The characters are well developed and multi-dimensional. I really enjoyed this action packed story. I was hooked from the beginning and had to keep going to the end. I recommend this for everyone who loves a good murder!

This book was a fascinating murder mystery that becomes more interesting as murders happened. Love how characters have development and multi-dimensional. Really enjoyed this action packed story. I was hooked from the beginning and the writing was well-thought. Highly recommend this! ☺️

This was my first book by this author and I was pleased. He has a writing style that keeps you interested but is not difficult to understand. The plot was great and the characters sharp. Overall I enjoyed it.

This was the first book I have read by this author but it for sure will not be my last. This book hooked me right from the first. Dylan Fisher is summoned by his ex-wife Rose Doucette to meet with him, she wants to hire him to help her solve a murder. A murder that she as a cop has been asked to step away from, but cannot seem to let go. After she leaves, he sees a car follow her chases behind, he gets there too late, Rose has been shot and Dylan tries to stop the killer and is hit by the fleeing vehicle. When the police arrive, they instantly believe that Dylan is guilty of murdering his ex-wife. I was immediately on Dylan’s side and hated the cop, Lutz who is set on taking Dylan down.

Dylan relies on his friend and lawyer, Mia and then eventually comes to work with Rose’s current husband, Tito to try to get to the bottom of why Rose and others have been murdered and to do that, they have to delve into Roses’s childhood and discover the horrors that may have occurred and try to find the person responsible. Lots of action and a good storyline.

Thank you to Netgalley, the publishing house and the author for the opportunity to read a complimentary copy of this book in return for a review based upon my honest opinion..

I really wanted to love this one it sounded so up my alley but I am slowly finding out that maybe PI/detective/mystery books are less my style and I should steer away from them.

This book centers on Rose delving into an intricate web of secrets and deceptions with her at the center. From the very first page, I was immersed in the story, unable to tear myself away. The plot takes on so many twists and just when I thought I had it figured out, something would come out of left field. however, despite thoroughly enjoying the plot, I felt that some aspects of the story could've been further explored. I would recommend this to anyone who loves to read suspenseful mysteries.

This was fine, a pretty solid police/PI mystery. Not my favorite ever, but ok with ok characters, and others will probably like it more than me.

I found this whodunit to be exceptionally interesting. I thoroughly enjoyed the plot and the unexpected turns it took. The author expertly crafted the characters, resulting in an immersive and atmospheric read.

I was searching for a light and easy read after going through a series of gruesome horror books. This book was just perfect for my needs. I usually enjoy reading crime thrillers and mysteries, and this one was no exception. Although it followed the standard format for a crime thriller, it was well-written and had a leisurely pace. However, if you're in the mood for a complex plot and a quicker pace, then you may find this story harder to read.

Big thanks to Netgalley for this ARC! OUT 10/1/24

For me, this book started out well and kept my interest until about 50% in.

PI Dylan Fisher is accused of killing his ex-wife, Rose Doucette. He is found at the murder scene, which he himself has been injured. Now he is on a hunt to find out who really killed Rose. While on this hunt, he starts to uncover Rose's tragic past.

Like I said, the beginning kept me turning the pages, and then the story got a bit boring. I finished because I did want to know how it ended, but there were no great twists in this one. If you like a cop whodunit, you'll most likely enjoy this one.

Thank you for the opportunity to read The Life and Death of Rose Doucette. This was a compelling mystery that I enjoyed unraveling. The characters were very engaging and sympathetic and I wanted to keep reading about them.

While I see that Harry Hunsicker is a prolific mystery writer, this is my first acquaintance with his style, and I really enjoyed it. Sad as it was, I loved the plot, with private investigator Dylan Fisher searching for answers after his police officer ex-wife is gunned down in front of him. The action is non-stop and the discoveries made me keep reading long after bedtime. The reveal of the killer’s identity tested credibility, but it was a wild, enjoyable read. 4.5 stars rounded up.

It took me a sec to get into this story, perhaps because right off the bat I didn’t like Rose, therefore I did not care she got killed.

But once I got into it, it moved at a nice quick pace and I enjoyed it. The twist didn’t wow me, I expected something like that, but I still enjoyed how everything came together.

I was interested right from the beginning and enjoyed the writing style of Hunsicker. A complex story involving people with authority or wealth who are morally corrupt and shows how past traumas can have long term affect on a person like substance abuse or a quest for justice.

A fast paced book I was able to finish on a Sunday afternoon. The beginning was solid and the author has built a good suspense. The investigation part was lacking in depth with the PI not proceeding with any clues or lines of inquiry until the final few chapters. The introduction of the villain was forced and sort of gave away the suspense. The titbits thrown in was in the style of Michael Connelly. While Bosch was a methodical investigator, Dylan just takes things on the fly. 3.5 stars

Dylan meets his ex wife but shortly after meeting with her, he sees someone is following her. He decides to follow and soon she is killed. He is accused of killing her so he must find out what had her so scared and why someone would want her dead. Dylan needs to go into Rose's history (something she has been very secretive about) to find out something that happened in her past and understand why she was investigating the death of someone from her past which in turn led to her death.

This book had me hooked from the first chapter. It is pretty faced paced and gets right into the story. I really liked the character Dylan, the story was captivating for me and it is a book I did not want to put down as you wanted to know what was going to happen next. For people who like Ruth Ware and Tarryn Fisher, this is a book to read

What a whirlwind! The Life and Death of Rose Doucette hooked me from the very first page. It’s always a good read for me when I finish a book in mere hours. This was one of those reads.

Sergeant Rose Doucette is a twenty-year veteran of the Dallas Police Department. She calls her ex-husband out of the blue and asks to meet. Dylan Fisher hasn’t seen his ex-wife for three years. Retired from the police department himself, Dylan is now a P.I. Rose wants to hire him to look into a death that was ruled a suicide by her department but she believes was murder. Unfortunately, Rose is murdered within minutes of their meeting. Even more unfortunate, Dylan is arrested for her murder. But why would Dylan wait three years after his divorce to murder Rose in cold-blood?

With the police wanting Dylan to go down for the murder, Dylan teams up with the most unlikely ally, Rose’s current husband, Tito. The two spiral into a deadly quest riddled in a conspiracy that no one predicted.

This wild ride unravels secrets, lies and a murderer’s quest to quiet all parties involved.

Pick this one up as soon as you can. You won’t be sorry!

Thank you to Oceanview Publishing, NetGalley and Harry Hunsicker, for providing me with a digital reviewer copy in exchange for my honest review.

The Life and Death of Rose Doucette is a ride!!!!

I was thrilled to get the opportunity to read this book and be able to review it. What stuck out to me the most was Harry's writing ability. Harry captured the character's emotions, the quick paced action and had the ability to draw in the reader in quickly while also keeping the reader hooked.

I can't wait to recommend this to my friends!

wow what a tangled web we weave! this book had everything, very well written and a really good ending, quite a shock! cruelty, fears and surprises not all good. great read

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I loved the relationship between Dylan and Tito, two men who both loved Rose and are trying to solve her murder. It is a quick read and there are plenty of twists without being convoluted. I highly recommend this book to anyone who loves a thriller.
