Listening to this book was a chore.
I'm glad I listened to this book. (with exception)
I didn't want this book to end.
I could not wait to be done with this book.
Average, but better than anything I've written.

The darkest crime yet, some trigger warnings for violence against women, sexual assault and rape.
Was I the only one that reacted to how many times "female/s" were used instead of woman/women? Sounded a little odd to me, maybe an historical thing?

Malloy investigates the mystery of a missing young woman who answered a lonely hearts ad, the early 20th century's version of social media. This really could've been a Law & Order episode that was ripped from the headlines! During the investigation, Malloy's forthcoming inheritance is discovered and he gets fired from the police department. This installment is a bit darker than some of the others in the series, but it was interspersed with lighter moments between Frank and Sarah as they transition into the next phase of their life together. And, as usual, Mrs Ellsworth is so helpful!
