I started thinking that this was going to be a murder mystery. In a way it was but it also read like a family relationships drama fraught with mental health and addiction issues. Mrs.Carrick writes a family drama with complex parent/child/sibling issues; high expectations of the eldest child and high opinions of his own greatness J.Caesar Fortune was a lousy dad and a horrible husband even though he was supposed to be a great author and I finished the book thinking wow I really didn't feel any pity for the victim. It was a wonderful twist at the end when the killer was discovered. The Noon God is a fast flowing novel set in Toronto and the author uses many Toronto Points of interest in her novel that any proud Canadian/Torontonian would love to see in print. Congratulations Donna on penning an enjoyable riveting book.
