This is #15 in the Canadian Crime Series, and my first Joanne Kilbourne Mystery. The story is heavy on her family. There is a deceased husband, current husband, adult kids, a teenager , grand kids, etc. The premise is based on her current husband's political race. I wasn't impressed with that storyline which includes what Bowen interprets as dirty politics. There is a long affair, and then a lot of will or can you forgive me. The book ran too long. Rose Street is the 15th book in the Joanne Kilbourn series, but the first I’ve read. I’ll admit it took me a while to get the plethora of characters straight. I’m not sure I would recommend this as a stand-alone, at least the audio version.Upper Floor - Carpeted staircase leads to the upper landing. Skylight. High level electricity fuse box. Doors to all Bedrooms and Bathroom. I did have a quibble with the idea of the progressive mayoral candidate being buddies with a slumlord. I also was not thrilled by the explicit sex details. I am not a fan of romance novels and this veered into that lane too often for my taste.

All-in-all I'm going with three stars. It wasn't horrible and I'm not likely to remember it. There is senseless profanity that only the author knows the necessity.

There are also red herrings throughout and delivered in the most creative format. People are enveloped in that caught me off guard and still pondering, but overall this was a worthwhile gift of audio that helped me get through some grueling yard work, kayaking and house cleaning. Elevation to Renfrew Street: low entrance bays with narrow windows, tiled surrounds in outer bays; thin pilaster strip in centre; central part breaking forward, corniced; higher recessed section with blind eaves gallery, glazed tile mullions. Statement of Special Interest I received a free copy of this book through the First Reads scheme. I have not read any of the previous 14 Joanne Kilburn novels, and perhaps that is why I found the cast of characters introduced in the opening chapters rather overwhelming. There seemed to me to be altogether too many characters, some of whom served no useful purpose (Joanne's sons, the family who randomly joined them at the lake at Thanksgiving, Margot etc), but maybe they appeared in earlier episodes and the author felt the need to keep them "current".
