Summary: Fun mystery, great characters
Review: I am a fan of Ms. Geary's from her other books, and I was thrilled to see this new mystery with new characters. I had it figured out, but it was still fun to read and I enjoyed the characters so much, I look forward to seeing them again.

Summary: one of this year's best police procedurals
Review: The Wilder Center is going to be the most advanced mental health facility in the country with the most up to date therapy, medical practices, and cutting-edge technology. Dr. David Ellery is the leading contender to run the center, something he wants beyond measure but when his sixteen-year-old patient, Foster Merritt commits suicide, the position is offered to his co-worker Dr. Morgan Reese instead.

Nobody except Morgan knows that Foster was one of the twins she gave away at birth. She wants to meet Foster's sister Avery and the adult son she walked out on, Archer when she divorced his father Rodman. She contacts the twins' biological father so he can be there when Avery meets her but he does not want anything to ruin his society marriage. Morgan's body is found on the eighth hole at Fairmount Links; the victim of a blow to the head and a gunshot wound. Various suspects hated Morgan, but who would detest her enough to kill her? Philadelphia homicide detective, Lucy O' Malley, the girlfriend of Archer, is going to do her best to find out.

Nancy Geary has written one of this year's best police procedurals. Readers can actually visualize the investigation and wonder which one of the various suspects was pushed to the breaking point. Ironically, readers will have more sympathy for the killer than the victim because Morgan tries to undo actions by hurting people who got in her way. REGRETS ONLY is a memorable work that will long be remembered after the last page is turned.
