WOW! What an incredible end to a thrilling series! This third one was the best in my opinion! Very satisfying ending!! Highly recommend for anyone who loves shows like Criminal Minds - this is like the Christian version of that show!

5 stars! My favourite of all the books, but I loved the entire series. I had my suspicions in the book and felt pretty good about some of my hunches at the end. , but it was so hard to really know for sure. I like that.

There was suspense, a little romance, growth in characters, intrigue, family dysfunction, and much more. I hope Kaely and Noah make appearances in a future series.

I listened to the audio version for all three. The narrator was good, but some male voices were not to my liking. I don’t like it when a narrator forces a voice for the opposite gender.

I just thought it was okay. There wasn’t anything spectacular about it. And I think I should have started at book one but in my defense this was on a sale rack at a local store and the first chapter hooked me. I wanted to get into the love story that the author tried to weave but it felt forced and unnatural. The elements of this story would have gone better for me if they didn’t feel so forced.

What an incredible end to the Kaely Quinn Profiler series!

After a body is discovered in a field in Iowa, more are found and they point to the serial killer “Raggedy Man”. He’s been in prison for over 20 years and is father to Agent Kaely Quinn. After refusing to talk to police they call in Quinn to find out if her father has been training a copycat killer. Kaely must face her demons and come face-to-face with a father she’s written off in order to find the killer and stop the murders.

While this is a great series, this book could definitely be read as a stand-alone book. This book is in the Christian genre, but the suspense was there and it kept me wondering until the end. I love a book that has me thinking I know who the killer is multiple times, but just keeps me going. While there was also a touch of romance, it didn’t really make the book for me, as I typically enjoy more contemporary romance. Overall if you enjoy Christian suspense this book is definitely for you.

I received an ARC from @netgalley and @bethanyhousefiction in exchange for my honest review.

3.5 stars. Good but nothing really special.

I was happy to see improvement and growth in Kaely’s mental health and in her relationship with Noah. This suspense kept me guessing who the UNSUB might be. The search for what their motive might be also had me stumped; I was shocked when I found out what the UNSUB’s motive ended up being.

Feel free to refer to my past reviews of the other books in this series for more details on my feelings on the plot and characters as a whole. Much of my complaints about this book are the same as the others in the series so I’m not going to get into them here too.

God bless,
Kaya :)
