Editorial Review: When a sudden tragedy turns her life upside down, Alex Ryan resigns as a homicide detective with the Boston PD and goes into hiding to lick her wounds in private. Her self-imposed exile doesn't last long because life keeps interfering. First there is Megan, the gorgeous new neighbor Alex starts to find too distracting, then her best friend Jamie who needs help solving a murder. Add in the calvary of friends who won't stay on the sidelines for long and Alex finds that even when she tries hard to disengage from life, life has a way of barging in and demanding her attention.

Rating: - Casavant taps into "Hidden Riches" with "Walking Wounded"
I received a copy of "Walking Wounded" as a gift this Christmas 2005 (actually I think I'd put it on my Amazon Wish List) and the more I read the more convinced I became that it was more than "familiar" - I'd actually read it before. Problem was, I'd never read any books by Casavant. It took some digging through my considerable collection of books, but I finally found the answer in Nora Roberts' 1995 novel "Hidden Riches". Please don't take my word for it - pick up both books and have a look yourself. ... Read More

Rating: - Great Things Come in Small Packages...
I picked up this book at breakfast and finished it just after lunch. I couldn't put it down. Alex Ryan turns in her badge after her lover, also a cop, is killed right in front of her eyes. Alex turns away from everything in her life -- her home, her friends, her family -- and essentially becomes a recluse. Her self-imposed exile is thwarted when she meets her neighbor and landlord, Megan. Megan doesn't know how to handle her growing attraction toward Alex, but exhibits a maturity everyone should strive ... Read More
Rating: - Thoroughly Enjoyable
Such a shame that this book is only around 200 pages long, but with that comes a fast paced page turner that I enjoyed immensely. The storyline was great and I especially loved the interplay between the two main characters and between Alex and her friends very amusing.
Rating: - Good blend of mystery and romance
A mixture between a mystery and a romance. This book is about a woman who has to come to terms with grief and change in her life after the murder of her lover. Alex meets Megan and gradually begins to emerge from the shell she has placed herself in. Eventually she begins to investigate her lover's murder only to pay a high emotional price. I thought this novel was kind of short for its subject matter, but it's a good page turner and makes you look forward to the next one, which is the plan I guess!
