I like Mitch!

Allyn knows how to write a strong, independent woman with a sense of humor and her own insecurities. I liked that Mitch was as much trying to solve her personal mysteries and the external one in which she becomes involved. The supporting characters are developed more with each book, which is a small fault. But Allyn does a very good job at providing a sense of place and building suspense. This is a very enjoyable series and one I recommend.

Good story-weak characterizations odf secondary characters

For years, Michelle "Mitch" Mitchell has left her son at a boarding school while she earns a living, diving off of oil rigs in the Gulf Coast. When her father dies, Mitch inherits a restaurant along the shore of Lake Huron. She decides it is time for mother and son to have the relationship they never had, so she brings eleven year old Corey to the Michigan Upper Peninsula to live with her. Their relationship is,at first, very strained to say the least. In a desperate attempt to reach her son, Mitch takes him on a camping trip. While on the road, she starts to wonder about her own parents, especially her deceased mother. Tracking her mother's path leads to a series of perilous encounters with several dangerous groups of people and canines. However, what's a mother to do except protect her cub even as she tries to reach out to him. A DANCE IN DEEP WATER is the third entry in the well written "Mitch" series. However, although thee novel is good,it's not quite as enjoyable as the previosu two tales (ICEWATER MANSIONS and BLACK WATER). Mitch remains an endearing character and the story line is loaded with soul searching adventure. What undermines the book a bit is that the support cast, including Cory, come across as caricatures of stereotypes rather than characters. Still, Doug Allyn is able to overcome that with a brilliant plot and the marvelous Mitch. Harriet Klausner
