Query: Not as good as other novels by the author

I am sorry to say that I really did not enjoy this novel as much as I have enjoyed the other books by Lisa Gardner that I have read. Primarily, I did not think that the book ever got to the point, but was constantly being side-tracked by romance, the female detective's family history, the family history of Danny, etc. Also, I felt that the principle characters were left hanging, with no real conclusion being drawn as to what happens to them. I purchased this book on audio disc, and it did not live up to my expectations.
