Great page-turner bringing back characters from the first 2 books and deftly weaving their stories together.  Often, in a series, the story gets watered down as it continues, but the author has managed to create another unique extension of the original story, building on the lives of previous characters as well as introducing new ones.  Great friendships, fun twists, and a fast pace added more perks to the story.

sad to be leaving bayview for good. but

i am so happy that everything ended up okay. it really was bittersweet. i love all the characters (except maybe phoebe, but i’m glad things worked out with her and knox, for his sake)

i do feel that it also resolved very quickly. i wanted it to explain things in more detail towards the end- it didn’t feel rushed, but almost too simple, if that makes sense. other than that i really enjoyed it.

One of Us is Back is our last trip to Bayview, which for many readers felt like home. McManus allows us to reconnect with our favorite characters, whether that be investigating a suspicious house or having a barbecue in the Rojas backyard. This was an amazing ending to an amazing trilogy, and for fans of the series, I would definitely recommend picking reading.
That being said, the plot definitely takes a back burner on this one, so if you felt so-so about books one and two, maybe this on you should skip! No matter where you stand, McManus is a phenomenal mystery writer, and I cannot wait to see what’s next from her!

Seeing Bronwyn and Nate again bumped it up from 3 to 4 stars! I would love to see an extended epilogue of them, or even a novella!
