FTC: I received a free copy of this book from Partners In Crime Book Tours in exchange for my honest review. I received no other compensation and the opinions expressed in this review are one hundred percent true and my own.
A Murder is Forever by Rob Bates was an exciting book. This book was a slow-moving book, which didn’t bother me too much. There wasn’t any suspense as I was reading and part of me wished that there had been some because I love books that have a ton of tension in them. I did fall in love with Mimi right from the start of the book, and I hope the author writes more books with her in them because I would love to read them. I was able to figure out who the killer was pretty early in the book, but that isn’t bad. This book would be perfect for people who like mystery books but don’t like a ton of suspense in the book. If you are looking for a mystery book to read this winter, I would for sure recommend this book to you. This book also isn’t super long, so I could get through it in a couple of days, which I always love.

Max Rosen always said the diamond business isn’t about sorting the gems, it’s about sorting the people. His daughter Mimi is about to learn that some people, like some diamonds, can be seriously flawed.
After Mimi’s diamond-dealer cousin Yosef is murdered–seemingly for his $4 million pink diamond–Mimi finds herself in the middle of a massive conspiracy, where she doesn’t know who to trust, or what to believe. Now she must find out the truth about both the diamond and her cousin, before whoever killed Yosef, gets her.
“[A] sprightly debut …. Bates, who has more than 25 years as a journalist covering the diamond business, easily slips in loads of fascinating information on diamonds and Jewish culture without losing sight of the mystery plot. Readers will look forward to Mimi’s further adventures.” – Publishers Weekly
