Fingerprints by Marcia Leonard Review

About the Book
Fingerprints is a murder/suspense novel with a love story-and a Multiple Personality Disorder thrown in. It's horrifying when the police come and arrest Julie's son Jeffrey for the murder of the doctor whose body she and Jeff found. But it's also dismaying when tough, independent Julie realizes she's falling for the lawyer she hired to defend Jeff. Clark, the lawyer, has his own shocking problems. The woman he goes to visit in the institution is only one of the personalities of his beloved wife-not the one who killed their little daughter. Liz, the doctor's killer, is perfectly happy with how the police investigation is turning out. And she'll kill again to keep it that way. Will Jeffrey be acquitted and the real killer exposed? Find out where the fingerprints lead.

About the Author
Marcia Leonard was born in New York City, where she began writing stories when she was in her teens. She became a chemist as her father told her she could not make her living as a writer. But she continued to write and her first published novel appeared on the internet in January of 2000.

After living in France for three years, Marcia then moved to Maine where she now resides with her husband and cat. She continues with many broad interests of archeology, sailing, and wild mushrooming but the most intense is writing!

My Thoughts
Fingerprints is a book that is a fast read. A murder mystery of a young man being accused of a murder he did not commit and a mother doing everything she can, including investigating the murder, to free her son. The story grabs you from the beginning and does not let go until the end. Very absorbing likable characters and a believable storyline.
The author weaves two separate but very important stories into each chapter. The ending for me was actually a surprise. I think that the mystery lover will enjoy this book.

I received a copy of this book for review and was not monetarily compensated for my review.
