I wish the resolution was more. It was so much build up and then not a lot of what happens after. Amazing book though and I’m definitely going to read more of her books.

This reminded me a lot of the Ruth Galloway series by Elly Griffiths. Great mystery story with well developed characters and little to no romance. So if you’re looking to just focus on the process and investigation, this would be a great book for you! Although this is book number 11 in the Will Trent series, it was my first. I wasn’t confused nor felt like I was missing anything. I do want to go back and read the others just for more context on who the characters are. I saw this is a show on ABC and am very curious to check it out! Heads up, some scenes are graphic and difficult to read.

Another great one. Was relieved Lena and Angie were absent from this one. Very much appreciate the attention she brings to there ever present jeopardies of being a woman and balancing that with the dedication of a man like Will, so that I can remember there are good men in the world too. And Amanda I’d really really really growing on me, quickly becoming my favorite character in this series. Really looking forward to the next one whenever it comes out.
