The Art of DeceptionSeattle police psychologist Daphne Mathews has her hands full with a pregnant, addicted, runaway teenager, a murder victim's brother whose strange behavior unnerves her, and a deputy sheriff she once treated who's now stalking her. She's frightened enough to move in with Detective John LaMoia, a development that doesn't exactly thrill Lou Boldt, their boss and Daphne'sex lover. But Lou's too busy with his own cases to brood over John and Daphne: the
Seattle police psychologist Daphne Mathews has her hands full with a pregnant, addicted, runaway teenager, a murder victim's brother whose strange behavior unnerves her, and a deputy sheriff she once treated who's now stalking her. She's frightened enough to move in with Detective John LaMoia, a development that doesn't exactly thrill Lou Boldt, their boss and Daphne'sex-lover. But Lou's too busy with his own cases to brood over John and Daphne: the recent disappearances of two local women, and the death of Billy Chen, the nephew of Mama Lu, an old friend and a powerful figure in Seattle's Chinese community, which appeared to be an accident but turns out to have been murder. The only thing the disappearances and murder have in common is location; all three victims were last seen in a part of downtown built over the Underground, a dark and dangerous warren of buildings abandoned after the fire that leveled Seattle more than a hundred years ago. While Seattle's Underground has been the setting for several mysteries by other authors (Earl Emerson, J.A. Jance), Pearson makes the most of its creepy-crawly atmosphere in a gripping thriller whose solid plotting pulls all of Daphne's, LaMoia's, and Boldt's cases together. It also wisely reconfigures the personal relationships among the three central characters, which bodes well for their future adventures in this long-running series (Middle ofNowhere, The Pied Piper). --Jane AdamsBinding Type: Hardcover

Appearances Can Be Deceiving. Perfect Size
Color: Gold Triple Huggie
When I opened the package I was shocked at how tiny these appeared and my immediate thought was to return them without even trying them on. That would have been a mistake. I did order them because they were a smaller version of this look and I wanted them to look elegant and sophisticated rather than making a bigger statement. Well, that is exactly what I got. The gold color is very nice and once I decided to put one on, and got it through my chubby earlobe, it was absolutely perfect and the look I was going for. I have larger ear lobes and they still hang down enough for some movement rather than just cupping my earlobe like a true cuff. If you want this style with a more minimalist and elegant look, these are your earrings. I highly recommend them and be sure to try them on before you make a decision.

Tarnish quickly
Color: Gold Triple Huggie, Color: Gold Triple Huggie
Cute just wish they were better quality, they tarnished both on the part inside my ear and not as visibly but also on the outside, def not as shiny. I’ve had them for almost 2 months or so and the inside of my ear is turning green/
black. Like I need to use an alcohol wipe and qtip to clean the ear hole. Ive worn them almost always but I don’t wear them when I wash my hair. I wear them during my only body showers and also have in gym so maybe steam or sweat has added to moisture that tarnished it but I’m disappointed at how quick they tarnished.
