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.

Ok I REALLY want to love this author, but I think i might be done 🫠 I’ve tried so many of her books + have enjoyed a couple but the majority are SO heavy on s*xual assault + this is the third in a row I’ve read of hers that has been overly graphic on this topic. I’m all for a dark plot but I’ve had enough of the rich-white-male character trope + the lurid detail in which they discuss this subject. It feels to me as though it’s used purely for shock factor + just seems to be the entire plot.
