Delaney never fails to deliver exactly as promised., May 25 2012

The Amazon Paperback description says 128 pages, indicating this is a novella. The publisher is Rapid Reads. When I buy a book with this description, with a story by Delaney, I know exactly what I'm getting: a solid mystery that is meant to be shorter than most.

A compelling mystery by a great story-teller!, Jun 26 2011

Once again, Delany hits the mark with Among The Departed, a mystery set in BC's stunning mountain region. More than just a mystery-writer, Delany has a keen insight into the often strained family ties that are the backdrop for her tales. Realistic characters, straight-forward story-telling and an old-style mystery are the hall-mark of Delany's work

You won't be disappointed -- this one should be on any mystery-lover's summer reading list!
