Other people have suggested that if you are a fan of Stephanie Plum Novels by Janet Evanovich, that you would like this series by Julie Kramer. They are similar in the sense that they both have a strong leading lady who solves crimes-even though they aren't supposed to-and catch bad guys. I would say that Missing Mark is much more wordy than anything by Janet Evanovich. I was exasperated by all the in depth details about being a news reporter. I found myself wanting to skip ahead very early on in the book because of that.

That being said, I liked the characters in the book, they had some interesting aspects to them. I also like the way that the story unfolds, even if it is a bit slowly. Despite the positives, I just couldn't get excited to continue reading this one. I finished it, but didn't gather much joy from the process. The book is light to the point of being uninteresting.
