 Really great read November 11, 2008
This book grabbed me from the first chapter and never let go. Terrific sleuth, with lots of personality and a compelling backstory, and well-drawn secondary characters. Great premise. And Julie Kramer did a fantastic job portraying a TV newsroom, with its quirky characters and often skewed outlook on the world. (I know; I worked in TV news for years.) The second I finished this book, I started looking forward to the next novel from this author. Highly recommended.
Well-paced mystery with a charmingly human narrator October 18, 2008

I love mysteries, especially those with serial killers. This book was well-paced. The premise was that women named Susan were being killed on the same date in multiple years. The characters were unique - the narrator is a TV reporter, who actually has an interesting backstory. The setting is Minnesota, which is not run-of-the-mill either.
This is a book you'll carry around with you until you've finished it - you want to keep reading. If you like mysteries where all the loose ends are tied up and explained, the characters' actions are logical but not necessarily predictable, you'll like this book.
 So-so debut October 16, 2008

In several instances, I wanted to say, what? Illogical in several instances, and the plot and denouement were predictable. Concentrate on character development and plot the next time.

I ordered this book, Stalking Susan, because I read a great review in my hometown paper, Pioneer Press. also, the novelist was a TV reporter in my town and the crimes took place in our state. I loved the characters, various plots, not just one mystery story but several. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes I can't put the book down theory. I hope Julie Kramer writes another.
First in what we hope is a Great Series! September 17, 2008

"First time author Julie Kramer is off to a great start with Riley Spartz, a widow who is also a television reporter. In the days of you are only as good as your last ratings, Spartz is handed a file of two cold case murders where both victims are named Susan. Kramer, who is a news producer in real life, offers a behind the scenes tell all of the makings of television stories to deliver a great who done it."
